SIBI-P1 Translation H5094-02
the illumination
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular, determined (definite) state; Aramaic form with prefixed conjunction in surface form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the Aramaic root נהר meaning "to shine" or "give light," so "illumination" preserves the sense of shining forth. The masculine singular determined state is reflected by the definite article "the." |
