SIBI-P1 H6260-02
ready he-goats
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine plural noun in the absolute state (HNcmpa). The term occurs only in the plural in Biblical Hebrew and refers literally to male goats; no pronominal suffix is present. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עַתּוּד derives from the root עתד, "to prepare" or "make ready," and denotes a full-grown, ready animal. The masculine plural absolute form (HNcmpa) is reflected in the rendering "he-goats," preserving both masculine gender and plurality, while "ready" retains the root sense of prepared maturity. |
