the mortal
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common; masculine singular; determined (definite) state in Aramaic. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from the root אנש, emphasizing human frailty and mortality rather than strength or status. As a masculine singular determined (definite) form, it is rendered "the mortal," preserving both number and definiteness while reflecting the root sense. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
men
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'the mortal' is too interpretive; in this narrative, the word refers to 'men' or 'people' generally, not the abstract idea of mortality—thus, 'men' fits better. |
