SIBI-P1 H4005-03
his choice-ones
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural noun in construct form (מִבְחָרֵי → מִבְחָרָי־) with 3ms pronominal suffix (-ו "his"). The construct state links the plural noun to the possessive suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מִבְחָר derives from the root בחר, "to choose," and denotes that which has been selected as best or most preferred. The form is masculine plural construct with a 3rd masculine singular suffix, so "his choice-ones" preserves the plural number and the possessive "his," while retaining the root idea of selected or chosen items. |
