in nearness with them
| Root | את (ʾ-t) |
| Core Meanings | nearness, proximity, accompaniment, association |
| Semantic Range | with, near, beside, in company with, among, by, against (in hostile contexts) |
| Conceptual Significance | This term expresses relational proximity—whether companionship, covenant solidarity, or opposition. In biblical narrative and law, being "with" someone often signals shared identity, alliance, or divine presence accompanying a people. |
| Morphological Notes | Preposition אֵת with 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix (Sp3mp), meaning "with them." Functions adverbially or prepositionally to denote close association. |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition אֵת conveys the idea of nearness or close association. Rendering it as "in nearness with them" preserves the root sense of proximity while accurately reflecting the 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix ("them"). |
