SIBI-P1 H5216-02

the gleaming lamps

Morphological NotesDefinite article הַ + noun נֵר (common masculine singular) in masculine plural absolute form נֵרֹת. No pronominal suffix; definite by article.
Rendering RationaleThe noun נֵר derives from a root meaning "to gleam" or "shine," so "gleaming lamps" preserves the connection to emitted light rather than treating it as a mere object. The form is masculine plural absolute with the definite article ("the"), accurately reflected in the plural noun phrase "the gleaming lamps."
