to them
| Root | הוא (h-w-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | third-person reference, he, they, personal identity |
| Semantic Range | to them, for them, belonging to them, toward them (depending on the governing verb or context) |
| Conceptual Significance | This pronominal form marks direction, benefit, or possession in relation to a defined group (masculine plural). In biblical narrative and discourse, such forms are essential for tracking participants and covenantal or communal relationships within Israel and among the nations. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic preposition לְ ("to, for") + independent/attached pronoun הוֹן (3rd person masculine plural). Morphology: AR/Sp3mp = Aramaic pronominal suffix, 3rd person masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form לְהוֹן consists of the preposition לְ ("to/for") prefixed to the Aramaic third-person masculine plural pronominal form הוֹן ("them"). The rendering "to them" preserves the plural third-person reference indicated by the morphology (Sp3mp), accurately reflecting the grammatical number and person of the original form. |
