Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct form (זִכְר־) with 3mp pronominal suffix (-ָם), from זֵכֶר (H2143).
Rendering RationaleThe noun זֵכֶר (zêker) derives from the root זכר, "to remember." In this form it is masculine singular in construct with a 3rd person masculine plural suffix, yielding "their remembrance"—that is, the remembrance belonging to or associated with them. The rendering preserves both the singular noun and the pronominal suffix.
