SIBI-P1 H8071-16

and mantles

Morphological NotesConjunction וּ (“and”) + noun common feminine plural absolute (שְׂמָלֹת), from singular שִׂמְלָה. No pronominal suffix; absolute state.
Rendering RationaleThe noun שִׂמְלָה denotes an outer covering or mantle. The form is feminine plural absolute with prefixed conjunction וּ (“and”), so the rendering "and mantles" preserves both the plural number and the sense of outer garments implied by the root idea of covering or enveloping.
