SIBI-P1 Translation H310-10
behind you (mp)
| Morphological Notes | Preposition from אַחַר with 2nd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (Sp2mp). |
| Rendering Rationale | The prepositional form אַחֲרֵי expresses spatial or sequential "behind/after," rooted in the idea of being at the rear or coming after. The 2nd person masculine plural suffix כֶם specifies "you" (masculine plural), yielding "behind you (mp)." |
