SIBI-P1 H7260-01
great-ones
| Root | רבב (r-b-b) |
| Core Meanings | greatness, abundance, multitude, magnitude, increase |
| Semantic Range | very great, mighty, grand, immense, powerful, boastful (of words), extraordinary things |
| Conceptual Significance | In Biblical Aramaic (notably Daniel), this term often characterizes kings, kingdoms, or words as exceptionally great or boastful, highlighting themes of human grandeur contrasted with the sovereignty of the Most High. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic adjective; masculine plural absolute form with -ָן ending. Derived from the root רבב (related to רב, "great, many"), expressing an intensified or emphatic quality of greatness. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is an Aramaic masculine plural adjective in the absolute state, derived from the root רבב, which conveys greatness and abundance. Rendering it as "great-ones" preserves both the plural morphology and the intensified sense of surpassing greatness inherent in the reduplicated root form. |
