SIBI-P1 H6755-03
the image-form
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun, common masculine singular in the determinate (emphatic) state, indicated by the suffixed א; functions as a definite noun: "the image." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צֶלֶם (Aramaic צַלְמָא) derives from the root צלם, conveying the idea of a shaped or shadow-like representation. Rendering it as "the image-form" preserves the concrete sense of a formed likeness rather than an abstract idea. The morphology (Aramaic noun, common masculine singular, determinate/emphatic state) is reflected in the singular masculine noun with the definite article "the." |
