SIBI-P1 H5957-05
to the ages
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun, common masculine plural absolute (Ncmpa) from עָלַם; prefixed with לְ preposition (“to/for”). Plural form emphasizes successive or unbounded ages. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עָלְמִין is masculine plural absolute in Aramaic, meaning “ages,” and the prefixed לְ conveys direction or duration (“to/for”). Rendering it “to the ages” preserves the plural form and reflects the root sense of extended, hidden time rather than collapsing it into the abstract singular “forever.” |
