to the Mighty God of
| Root | אל (ʾ-l) |
| Core Meanings | might, strength, power, deity |
| Semantic Range | God, a god, deity, the Mighty One, divine being (in Aramaic contexts, often referring to the God of Israel) |
| Conceptual Significance | In the Aramaic portions of Scripture (e.g., Ezra, Daniel), אֱלָהּ designates the supreme deity, often in contrast to pagan gods, emphasizing YHWH as the true Mighty One who rules over kings and nations. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun, common masculine singular construct (Ncmsc) with prefixed preposition לְ (“to”). Cognate with Hebrew אֱלוֹהַּ. The construct state indicates a genitival relationship (“God of …”). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אֱלָהּ (Aramaic) derives from the root אל, conveying might or power, hence deity as the Mighty One. The form is masculine singular construct with a prefixed לְ (“to”), so the rendering preserves the singular masculine sense and the construct relationship by expressing “God of,” preceded by “to.” |
