the heavens
| Morphological Notes | Noun, nominative masculine plural (Gr,N,,,,,NMP); functioning as a subject or predicate nominative in plural form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The plural nominative form denotes multiple or layered celestial expanses, reflecting ancient cosmological conceptions of more than one 'heaven.' "The heavens" preserves both the plural morphology and the full semantic range from visible sky to transcendent divine realm. |
