Medans
| Morphological Notes | Noun, proper name; masculine plural absolute. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is masculine plural absolute of the proper name מְדָן (Medan). Since the term functions exclusively as a personal name in biblical usage, the plural denotes members or descendants bearing that name, preserved here as “Medans.” |
