| Morphological Notes | Aramaic demonstrative pronoun, plural, common gender; emphatic/extended form functioning independently or attributively. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is the emphatic Aramaic plural demonstrative derived from אֵל, preserving the core function of pointing out or indicating specific entities. The plural morphology requires the rendering "these." |
