the heads of them

Morphological NotesNoun common masculine plural construct (רָאשֵׁי) + 3rd masculine plural pronominal suffix (הֶם). From lemma רֹאשׁ (H7218).
Rendering RationaleThe noun רָאשֵׁי is masculine plural in construct form, joined with the 3rd masculine plural suffix הֶם (“them”), yielding “the heads of them.” This preserves both the concrete image of “heads” from the root ראשׁ and the plural possessive sense indicated by the morphology.
