SIBI-P1 H8533-01

three-tens (masculine form)

Rootתלת (t-l-t)
Core Meaningsthree, triad, triplet, threefold quantity
Semantic RangeThe number thirty; a quantified group of thirty units (persons, days, years, measures, etc.), depending on context.
Conceptual SignificanceAs a multiple of three, it reflects the numerical structuring common in biblical literature, where numbers often carry symbolic or rhetorical weight. In narrative and apocalyptic contexts (notably in Aramaic sections of Daniel), such numerals contribute to ordered descriptions of time, rank, and administration.
Morphological NotesAramaic cardinal numeral; common masculine plural absolute form (AAcmpa). Functions as the masculine form of the number thirty.
Rendering RationaleThe Aramaic form תְּלָתִין is built from the root תלת ("three") with a pluralizing/decimal ending, literally denoting "three tens." Rendering it as "three-tens (masculine form)" preserves the visible connection to the root "three" while reflecting its masculine plural absolute morphology.
