the River (the Nile)
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun with prefixed definite article (הַ); treated as a proper or specific river name in context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun יְאֹר denotes a great river, especially the Nile. The prefixed definite article הַ requires the rendering "the," and the singular form is preserved as "River," reflecting the specific, well-known river of Egypt rather than a generic stream. |
