SIBI-P1 Translation H3725-01
the expiations
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common masculine plural absolute with definite article (הַ + כִּפֻּרִים). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from כפר, "to cover, purge, make propitiation," and appears here as a masculine plural with the definite article. "The expiations" preserves the plural form (kippurim) and reflects the ritual acts of covering over or purging sin inherent in the root. |
