men of
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common; masculine plural; construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מַת denotes adult males or men, often collectively. The form מְתֵי is masculine plural in the construct state, requiring a following complement, hence the rendering "men of" to preserve both plurality and construct linkage. |
