lambs
A full-grown male sheep (ram), often denoting a mature, plump member of a flock; by extension, a large pasture or meadow suitable for grazing, or an object characterized by roundness or fullness (such as a saddle pad or cushion). In some military contexts, refers figuratively to a battering-ram, emphasizing the butting motion of a ram. Occasionally used for figures of prominent persons (leaders) in prophetic literature, though this is rare and figurative.

full-grown rams
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural common noun, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root כרר, conveying roundness and plump fullness; as a masculine plural absolute form, it denotes mature, well-fattened male sheep. "Full-grown rams" preserves both the root sense of developed fullness and the plural masculine morphology. |
