banished wanderers
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural common noun, absolute state; substantival formation likely from a passive participial pattern. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from רוד, "to wander," and reflects a substantival passive formation meaning those caused to wander or expelled. The masculine plural absolute form is preserved in the plural "wanderers," with "banished" expressing the passive sense of enforced roaming. |
