Heights of Gilead
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun; feminine plural form functioning as a toponym (place name). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form derives from the plural noun רָמוֹת (“heights”) from the root רום, joined with גלעד (Gilead). As a proper name, it designates the specific fortified city whose name literally means “Heights of Gilead,” preserving the plural morphology and the root sense of elevation. |
