SIBI-P1

with him

Root	עם (ʿ-m)
Core Meanings	companionship, association, nearness, being alongside
Semantic Range	with, in company with, alongside, together with, in association with, sometimes against or in opposition depending on context
Conceptual Significance	The term expresses relational proximity and shared presence, often highlighting covenantal nearness, divine accompaniment, or interpersonal solidarity. In biblical theology, being “with” someone—especially when used of YHWH with a person—signals favor, support, and active presence.
Morphological Notes	Preposition עִם (HR) with 3rd person masculine singular suffix (Sp3ms), yielding עִמּוֹ; literally “with him.”
Rendering Rationale	The form עִמּוֹ consists of the preposition עִם (“with, in company with”) plus the 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix -וֹ (“him”). The rendering "with him" preserves both the relational sense of companionship inherent in the root עם and the masculine singular suffix indicated in the morphology.
