According to some lexicons, this word is only used in reference to
Sodom and Gomorrah. [Holladay inserts *almost* in parentheses
before the word only.] If that's the case, is ZaRiYM here a
reference to the Sodomites? Also, I assume that that would make
this construct form an objective genitival usage. Is it possible,
if the Sodomites were not the people referred to here, that the
construct could be subjective? Or would the preposition K which
introduces the construct chain force an objective genitive?
