SIBI-P1 Translation H6571-04
cavalrymen
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common; masculine plural absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun פָּרָשׁ in the masculine plural absolute form denotes mounted military personnel or war-steeds; the plural masculine morphology supports rendering it as "cavalrymen." This reflects the specialized military sense the root developed from the idea of spreading out or extending (as in the stride or mounted stance). |
