Footnote:

998

Hebrew ha-atudim ha-olim. Chief, ram. (figuratively) leaders of the people – chief. The presence of definite articles to the noun and verb participle yield a definite label or identification, i.e. the Ascending Chiefs or the Ascending Male-Goats. Olim, ascending, is the participle of alah (Strong’s 5927) means to go up, ascend, climb.
