SIBI-P1 H2543-08

his red-dun donkey

Morphological NotesHebrew noun, common masculine singular construct with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix ("his").
Rendering RationaleThe noun חֲמוֹר derives from the root חמר, associated with redness or ruddy coloration, likely referring to the animal’s typical dun hue. The form is masculine singular with a 3ms pronominal suffix, so the rendering preserves both the singular sense and the possessive "his."
