Usage: The Aramaic word אֵל is used in the context of pointing out or referring to specific items or people, similar to the English demonstrative pronouns "these" or "those." Context: The Aramaic term אֵל (el) is a demonstrative pronoun used in the Hebrew Bible, particularly in the Aramaic sections of the Old Testament. It functions similarly to its Hebrew counterpart אֵלֶּה (elleh), serving to specify or highlight particular objects or individuals within a narrative. This term appears in the context of Aramaic passages, such as those found in the books of Daniel and Ezra, where the language shifts from Hebrew to Aramaic. The use of אֵל is essential for understanding the nuances of these texts, as it helps to clarify which items or people are being referenced in the narrative. For example, in the book of Daniel, the use of אֵל can be seen in the context of describing visions or decrees, where specific elements are being pointed out for emphasis or clarification.
