Morphological NotesHebrew noun, common gender, singular absolute (HNcbsa). Though grammatically common in gender, it most often governs feminine agreement in usage.
Rendering RationaleThe noun אֵשׁ is a common singular absolute form, so the rendering preserves its singular number without added modifiers. “Fire” directly reflects the root sense of burning or flame inherent in אשׁ, maintaining the elemental and concrete force of the Hebrew term.
