SIBI-P1 H2001-01
the Haman
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, masculine singular absolute with prefixed definite article (הַ). The name is of foreign (Persian) derivation and not analyzable from a clear Hebrew verbal root. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form הַמָּן is a masculine singular proper noun with the definite article (HTd/Ncmsa). Rendering it as "the Haman" preserves the grammatical definiteness and masculine singular form present in the Hebrew, while retaining the proper name without imposing an uncertain Hebrew root meaning. |
