SIBI-P1 Translation H7218-49
and from head of
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + preposition מִן + masculine singular noun רֹאשׁ in construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun רֹאשׁ in masculine singular construct means "head" or "top of," here governed by the preposition מִן ("from") and prefixed conjunction ו ("and"). The construct state requires the sense "head of" while preserving the core idea of prominence or uppermost position. |
