and the remainder of

Root	יתר (y-t-r)
Core Meanings	excess, remainder, surplus, superiority, that which is left over
Semantic Range	remainder, remnant, surplus, excess, superiority, advantage, what is left over, cord/string (as something hanging over)
Conceptual Significance	יֶתֶר often marks what remains after loss, judgment, or distribution, highlighting the concept of leftover portion—whether material surplus, surviving remnant, or enduring advantage. It can underscore both scarcity (only a remainder left) and abundance (that which exceeds need), depending on context.
Morphological Notes	Conjunction וְ ("and") + masculine singular noun יֶתֶר in construct state (Ncmsc). The construct form requires a following genitive to complete the sense ("remainder of …").
Rendering Rationale	The noun יֶתֶר derives from the root יתר, conveying the idea of excess or what remains beyond. As a masculine singular noun in the construct state with the prefixed conjunction וְ, it is best rendered "and the remainder of," preserving both the sense of surplus/that-which-remains and the grammatical singular construct relationship.
