the ruling king

Morphological NotesAramaic noun, common masculine singular, determinate (emphatic) state; functions as a definite noun, "the king." Corresponds to Hebrew מֶלֶךְ.
Rendering RationaleThe root מלך conveys the exercise of royal rule and authority. Rendering the determinate masculine singular form as "the ruling king" preserves both the core idea of active reign inherent in the root and the grammatical features: masculine singular noun in the determinate (emphatic) state, hence "the."
