one uttering

Rootמלל (m-l-l)
Core Meaningsto speak, utter, declare, articulate
Semantic Rangeto speak, say, declare, pronounce, express in words, make a formal statement
Conceptual SignificanceIn Biblical Aramaic contexts (e.g., Daniel), this term often marks authoritative or revelatory speech, whether from kings, officials, or heavenly figures, underscoring the power and public weight of spoken words in covenantal and imperial settings.
Morphological NotesAramaic verb; active participle, masculine singular absolute (AVprmsa). The doubling of the middle consonant reflects the intensive (Pael) stem formation typical in Biblical Aramaic.
Rendering RationaleThe form מְמַלִּל is an Aramaic masculine singular active participle, indicating an ongoing or characteristic action. "One uttering" preserves the verbal force of the participle and reflects its masculine singular form while keeping close to the root sense of articulated speech.
