SIBI-P1 H426-02

of the Mighty God

Rootאלה (ʾ-l-h)
Core Meaningsmight, power, deity, divine strength
Semantic RangeGod (the true God of Israel), a god (in reference to pagan deities), the divine being understood as powerful or mighty
Conceptual SignificanceIn the Aramaic portions of Scripture, אֱלָהּ designates the sovereign God acknowledged even in imperial contexts. The term emphasizes divine might and authority, underscoring God's supremacy over kings and nations.
Morphological NotesAramaic noun, common masculine singular, determined (emphatic) state. Cognate with Hebrew אֱלוֹהַּ. Frequently appears in genitive constructions in Biblical Aramaic (Ezra–Daniel).
Rendering RationaleThe noun is masculine singular in the determined (emphatic) state in Aramaic, referring to a specific deity. Rendering it "the Mighty God" preserves the root sense of divine power (ʾ-l-h) and reflects the singular, definite form; the prefixed "of" reflects its common genitive use in context ("of the God").
