a raiding band

Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcmsa). No suffixes; occurs here as an independent singular entity.
Rendering RationaleThe noun גְּדוּד derives from the root גדד, which conveys the idea of cutting or forming into bands, and by extension raiding or marauding in groups. "A raiding band" preserves this root sense of organized, often aggressive grouping. The morphology (masculine singular absolute) is reflected by the singular form "a ... band."
