in company with them
| Root | עמם (ʿ-m-m) |
| Core Meanings | association, companionship, togetherness, proximity |
| Semantic Range | with, alongside, in association with, together with, against (in opposition), among, in the presence of |
| Conceptual Significance | This term frequently marks relational proximity—whether human companionship, covenant solidarity, or divine presence (e.g., YHWH being "with" His people). It underscores the biblical emphasis on communal identity and the theological weight of shared presence. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition עִם ("with, in association with") + 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix; functions adverbially or prepositionally to denote accompaniment or proximity. |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition עִם expresses close association or companionship. With the 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (-הֶם), the form means "with them," here rendered "in company with them" to preserve the root sense of shared presence and association while accurately reflecting the masculine plural suffix. |
