food (that which is eaten)
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun (absolute or construct) from the root אכל; also related to the Qal masculine singular participle "eating/one who eats" in other occurrences of the same form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אֹכֶל is a masculine singular form derived directly from the root אכל, "to eat." Rendering it as "food (that which is eaten)" preserves the active sense of the root by highlighting that it is the object of eating, while reflecting its masculine singular morphology. |
