Another syntax question.

In Gen 1:20, the waters are to teem with "sherez nephesh chayyah"

Now, is this two separate objects? Swarming things AND living, breathing things.

Or a single object? Swarming, living breathing things.

In the latter case, the noun sherez would function as an adjective.


cheers,
Andrew
