and for the young rams
| Root | כבשׂ (k-b-ś) |
| Core Meanings | to subdue, dominate, tread down, bring under control |
| Semantic Range | young ram, male lamb, sheep suitable for sacrifice, flock animal |
| Conceptual Significance | The כֶּבֶשׂ frequently appears in sacrificial contexts, especially in daily and festival offerings, symbolizing consecration, atonement, and covenantal devotion within Israel’s worship system. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ (“and”) + preposition לַ (“to/for the,” with assimilated definite article) + noun כְּבָשִׂים, common masculine plural absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun כְּבָשִׂים is masculine plural, here with the prefixed conjunction וְ and preposition לַ with the definite article, yielding “and for the young rams.” The rendering preserves the masculine plural form and reflects the underlying root sense of strength or butting dominance associated with a young ram. |
