to the enclosing-vessels of
| Root | מאן (m-ʾ-n) |
| Core Meanings | enclosure, container, vessel, implement, utensil |
| Semantic Range | vessels, containers, utensils, implements, articles used for holding or service, especially in temple or royal contexts |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical usage, such vessels often refer to sacred or royal implements, especially those associated with temple service or court life, symbolizing what is set apart, contained, or designated for a specific holy or official function. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun, masculine plural construct (Ncmpc) with prefixed preposition לְ. The construct state requires a following genitive complement ("of …"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from a root conveying the idea of enclosure or containment, hence "vessels" as objects that enclose or hold. The form is masculine plural construct with the prefixed preposition לְ ("to/for"), so the rendering preserves the plural sense ("vessels") and the relational construct form ("of"), along with the prefixed "to." |
