Context: The Aramaic word נָשִׁין (nashin) appears in the context of the Hebrew Bible, particularly in sections written in Aramaic, such as parts of the books of Daniel and Ezra. This term is used to denote a man or men, similar to its Hebrew counterpart נָשִׁים (nashim), which typically means "women" but in this Aramaic form refers to men. The usage of Aramaic in the Hebrew Bible reflects the historical and cultural interactions of the Jewish people with the Aramaic-speaking world, especially during the Babylonian exile and the subsequent Persian period. The term נָשִׁין is part of the broader linguistic tapestry that illustrates the transition and influence of languages in the biblical text. In the Berean Standard Bible, the translation of this term aligns with its contextual meaning, ensuring that the intended reference to men is clear in the narrative.
