Exegesis
The construct min-qadmiyah qodamah telat {מִן־קדמיה קֳדָמַ֖הּ תְּלָ֑ת | min-qad-mi-yāh qo-dā-mah tə-lāṯ} compresses “from before it three,” and the comparative rav min-chavratāh {רַב מִן־חַבְרָתַֽהּ | rav min-ḥav-ra-tāh} highlights superiority. English SVO order is adopted for clarity while retaining the original narrative flow.
