SIBI-P1 Translation H7607-01
for his flesh
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ל + masculine singular construct noun + 3ms pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שְׁאֵר fundamentally denotes flesh or bodily substance, derived from the idea of what remains. In construct with a 3ms suffix and prefixed ל, it yields the sense "for his flesh," preserving both the primary physical meaning and the pronominal possession. |
