SIBI-P1 Translation H6635-09
from an organized host
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן ("from") prefixed to noun צָבָא; common noun, singular, construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צָבָא denotes a body organized for warfare or sacred service; rendering it as "organized host" preserves the root idea of ordered service or battle-readiness. The prefixed מִן is reflected by "from," and the singular construct form is represented by the singular English noun. |
