SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
the returned one
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | In this context, the adjective 'returned' fits better than 'brought-back,' as it refers to the silver being put back. 'One' preserves the substantival participle in Hebrew. 'The returned one' is contextually clearer. |
