SIBI-P1 Translation H123-06
and Red-one (Edom)
| Morphological Notes | Proper masculine singular noun with prefixed conjunction ו ("and"); no pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The proper name derives from the root אדם meaning "to be red" or "ruddy." Rendering it as "Red-one" preserves the root sense while retaining the identity of the proper name Edom; the prefixed conjunction ו adds "and." |
