SIBI-P1 Translation H2896-17
from goodness
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן ("from") prefixed to masculine singular absolute adjective טוֹב, used substantivally. |
| Rendering Rationale | The base adjective טוֹב denotes positive quality or benefit; here it functions substantivally in the masculine singular, with the prefixed preposition מִן indicating source or origin. "From goodness" preserves both the root idea of beneficial quality and the prefixed preposition. |
