from upon me

Rootעל (ʿ-l)
Core Meaningsabove, over, upon, against, from
Semantic Rangefrom upon/off me, away from me (spatial removal); by extension, beyond me, on account of me (contextual); against me (downward aspect in adversarial sense)
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical contexts, מֵעָלַי often conveys divine withdrawal or protection 'from upon' an individual (e.g., God's hand 'from upon' someone), highlighting themes of removal of burden/oppression or cessation of authority; theologically underscores God's sovereign movement in relation to human agency, as in prophetic calls or judgments where affliction lifts 'from me'.
Morphological NotesHR/R/Sp1cs: inseparable preposition מֵן ('from') + root עַל ('upon, over') with 1st person common singular pronominal suffix -י; appears in various accentual forms but uniform morphology.
Rendering RationaleThis rendering preserves the prepositional sense of 'from upon/off me' inherent to the contracted form מֵעָלַי (H5921), directly reflecting the 1st person common singular pronominal suffix ('me') and inseparable preposition מֵן ('from') as indicated in the HR/R/Sp1cs morphology. It maintains the root's core spatial/directional semantics of motion 'from above/off' without anglicizing, ensuring grammatical person accuracy. The form's consistency across occurrences emphasizes this fixed 1cs possessive relation.
