Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct state (זַרְעָ) with 3mp pronominal suffix (־ם), meaning "seed of them" or "their seed." Though singular in form, it often functions as a collective noun.
Rendering RationaleThe noun זֶרַע (zeraʿ) derives from the root זרע meaning "to sow" and denotes seed in both literal and figurative senses. The form is masculine singular in construct with a 3rd person masculine plural suffix, yielding "their seed," preserving both the singular collective sense and the possessive "their."
