from upon

Morphological NotesPreposition מִן (min, "from") in reduced form מֵ־ prefixed to the preposition עַל (ʿal, "upon, over"); categorized as HR/R (Hebrew preposition). Indeclinable; no gender, number, or person marking.
Rendering RationaleThe form מֵעַל consists of the preposition מִן ("from") prefixed to עַל ("upon, over"). Rendering it "from upon" preserves both components: the separative force of מִן and the elevated or overlying sense inherent in עַל, maintaining the spatial imagery of movement away from an elevated position.
