the sojourning resident

Morphological NotesNoun common masculine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). The form is singular and definite: "the gēr."
Rendering RationaleThe noun גֵּר derives from the root גור, "to sojourn" or "to reside temporarily." Rendering it as "the sojourning resident" preserves the verbal sense of dwelling as an outsider while reflecting the definite article ("the") and the masculine singular form indicated by the morphology (Ncmsa).
