SIBI-P1 Translation H6925-02
before me
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic preposition קֳדָם with 1st person common singular pronominal suffix (-י), meaning "before/in front of me." |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition derives from the root meaning "to be in front" or "to precede," and with the 1st person singular suffix it denotes that which is positioned in front of or prior to the speaker. "Before me" preserves both spatial and temporal anteriority inherent in the root. |
