mighty ones
| Morphological Notes | Masculine plural adjective, absolute state; often used substantivally to denote powerful beings or individuals. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root אבר meaning "to be strong, to be mighty." As a masculine plural adjective in the absolute state, it functions substantivally to denote "mighty ones," preserving both the root sense of strength and the plural masculine morphology. |
