SIBI-P1 Translation H3064-03
the Judahite
| Morphological Notes | Adjective (gentilic) masculine singular absolute with definite article; functioning substantivally. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine singular gentilic with the definite article, denoting one belonging to or descended from Judah. "Judahite" preserves the derivation from יְהוּדָה (Judah), which itself derives from the root ידה, maintaining the root connection rather than using the later religious-ethnic term "Jew." |
