Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct state (HNcmsc), indicating a relational form "chief of…" linking it to a following noun.
Rendering RationaleThe noun שַׂר derives from the root שׂרר, "to rule" or "to exercise authority." As a masculine singular noun in the construct state (cmsc), it denotes a single male authority figure in relation to what follows, hence "ruling-chief of," preserving both the root sense of active governance and the grammatical construct form.
