| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן (from) prefixed to proper noun חֶבְרוֹן (place name, singular). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun חֶבְרוֹן derives from the root חבר, denoting joining or alliance, with a toponymic -וֹן ending indicating a place; thus it conveys "Place of Association." The prefixed מֵ־ (from) is preserved, yielding "from Place-of-Association." |
