SIBI-P1 Translation H310-17
from behind him
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן (from) + noun/preposition אַחַר (behind/after) + 3rd person masculine singular suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition מֵ ('from') is prefixed to אַחַר ('behind, after') with a 3ms pronominal suffix, yielding the sense of movement or position originating at his rear. This preserves the root idea of being behind in spatial or sequential relation. |
