and a ruling-one
| Root | משל (m-š-l) |
| Core Meanings | to rule, govern, exercise dominion, have authority |
| Semantic Range | to rule, reign, govern, exercise dominion, have mastery or authority over people, territories, or circumstances |
| Conceptual Significance | The root משל conveys the exercise of delegated or established authority, often describing kings, leaders, or even cosmic bodies (e.g., sun and moon) set to govern. It reflects the biblical theme of ordered dominion under the sovereignty of YHWH. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ ("and") + Qal active participle masculine singular absolute of מָשַׁל. Functions substantivally: "one who rules" or "ruler." |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a Qal active participle masculine singular with prefixed conjunction ("and"), denoting "one who rules." Rendering it as "a ruling-one" preserves the participial sense of ongoing authority while reflecting the masculine singular form. |
