SIBI-P1 H1715-01
increase-grain
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcmsa). Functions as a collective or mass noun referring to harvested grain. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun דָּגָן is a masculine singular absolute form, rendered here as the singular mass noun "increase-grain" to preserve both its grammatical singularity and its derivation from a root meaning "to increase" or "multiply." This rendering keeps the agricultural sense of grain while foregrounding the idea of produce as the land’s increase. |
