SIBI-P1 Translation H310-07
behind them
| Morphological Notes | Preposition אַחֲרֵי (from אחר) with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition derives from the root meaning "to be behind" or "to come after" and here carries a 3rd person masculine plural suffix, yielding "behind them." The rendering preserves the core spatial sense while allowing for temporal extension in usage. |
