SIBI-P1 Translation PFX-L-02
to them (masculine plural)
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ל (lamed, "to/for") + 3rd person masculine plural pronominal suffix; HR/Sp3mp. Functions as an indirect object, marker of direction, possession, or advantage. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form consists of the preposition ל ("to/for") prefixed to the third-person masculine plural pronominal suffix הם ("them"). The rendering preserves the directional sense of ל and explicitly reflects the masculine plural person and number indicated by Sp3mp. |
SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
for them
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | The form לָהֶם in this covenant context is best as 'for them' rather than 'to them' or 'with them.' It marks beneficiaries in Biblical Hebrew. Not a P1 error, but P1 was blank; this fills it per context and standard function. |
