and a stall-fattened fatling

Rootמרא (m-r-ʾ)
Core Meaningsfatness, well-fed strength, grossness, luxuriant growth, domineering fullness
Semantic Rangestall-fed animal, fattened calf, choice cattle, well-fed beast prepared for sacrifice or feasting
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical culture, a stall-fattened animal represented abundance, honor, and celebratory provision, often associated with sacrificial worship or royal and covenantal feasts, symbolizing prosperity and blessing.
Morphological NotesConjunction וּ plus masculine singular noun in the absolute state; no pronominal suffix; common noun referring to a single animal.
Rendering RationaleThe noun מְרִיא derives from a root associated with fatness and luxuriant fullness, referring to an animal made rich or gross through feeding. The morphology (HC/Ncmsa) indicates a conjunction plus a masculine singular absolute noun, so the rendering preserves the singular form with "and" and reflects the idea of deliberate fattening in "stall-fattened fatling."
