SIBI-P1 H8034-25
their name
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun (construct) שֵׁם with 3rd masculine plural pronominal suffix (-ם), yielding "name of them" or "their name." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שֵׁם fundamentally denotes a "name" as a marker of identity, reputation, or renown. The form is masculine singular in construct with a 3rd masculine plural suffix, so "their name" accurately preserves both the singular noun and the plural possessive sense inherent in the morphology. |
