N2 - In this paper, I propose to read the noun חַלּוֹנֵינוּ ḥallōnēnū ‘our windows’, in the prophetic description of the enemy onslaught on Jerusalem (Jer 9:20), as חֵילוֹנֵינוּ ḥēlōnēnū ‘our ramparts’, a form of חֵל/חֵיל ḥēl ‘outer wall, rampart’, with the -ōn affix as a plural morpheme, similar to comparable morphemes found in Akkadian and Aramaic. A similar element may be discerned in אֵלוֹן ʾēlōn ‘terebinth’ as an ‘individualizing’ morpheme.
