Translations: Alamoth
From the root: ΑΛΕΜΩΘ
Part of Speech: Proper Noun
Explanation: This word is a transliteration of a Hebrew term, likely referring to a musical instruction or a type of instrument, possibly meaning 'for the maidens' or 'on the high-pitched instruments'. It appears in musical notations in the Septuagint, indicating how a psalm or song should be performed. The apostrophe at the end (keraia) indicates it is a number, but in this context, it is a transliteration of a Hebrew word, so the keraia is likely a scribal mark or a misinterpretation of a Hebrew final letter.
