SIBI-P1 H5057-05
front-standing leaders
| Root | נגד (n-g-d) |
| Core Meanings | to be in front, stand before, make known, declare, make prominent |
| Semantic Range | prince, ruler, commander, chief, governor, noble, prominent one |
| Conceptual Significance | In the biblical context, a נָגִיד is one set before the people—often divinely appointed—highlighting the concept of visible, accountable leadership established by יהוה to guide, govern, or represent the community. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine common plural absolute (from נָגִיד). No pronominal suffix; denotes multiple male or masculine-designated figures in leadership roles. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun נְגִידִים is masculine plural absolute, so the rendering preserves the plural form with "leaders." By using "front-standing," the translation reflects the root נגד, conveying the idea of one set before others, made prominent, or placed at the forefront. |
