mighty-men

Rootגבר (g-b-r)
Core Meaningsstrength, might, prevailing power, superiority, valor
Semantic Rangestrong men, warriors, valiant fighters, champions, powerful leaders, mighty figures (including heroes or giants in certain contexts)
Conceptual Significanceגִּבּוֹרִים often designates elite warriors or men of exceptional strength and valor, highlighting the cultural esteem for martial prowess and decisive strength. In narrative and poetic texts, it can also underscore human power in contrast to YHWH’s surpassing might.
Morphological NotesMasculine plural absolute form of גִּבּוֹר (gibbôr). The ending ־ִים marks masculine plural; used substantivally to denote strong or valiant men.
Rendering RationaleThe noun גִּבּוֹר derives from the root גבר, conveying strength and prevailing power. The form גִּבּוֹרִים is masculine plural absolute, so "mighty-men" preserves both the root idea of strength and the explicitly masculine plural sense indicated in Hebrew.
