SIBI-P1

toward you (masculine plural)

Rootאל (ʾ-l)
Core Meaningsmotion toward, direction, nearness, relation
Semantic Rangeto, toward, unto, against, concerning, with reference to, in relation to, near
Conceptual SignificanceThis common directional preposition often marks covenantal address, divine speech, or relational movement—whether physical approach, spoken address, or turning of intention—highlighting the personal and relational dynamics central to biblical theology.
Morphological NotesPreposition אֶל ("toward, to") with 2nd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (-כֶם); functions as a directional prepositional phrase.
Rendering RationaleThe preposition אֶל expresses motion or direction toward a person or place. With the 2nd person masculine plural suffix (-כֶם), it specifically means "toward you" addressing multiple males (or a mixed group). The rendering preserves both the directional force of the root and the masculine plural grammatical form.
