The ninth — ordinal number marking the ninth position in a sequence of time, persons, or objects
The ordinal form of tesha ('nine'), used to mark the ninth item in various ordered sequences throughout the Hebrew Bible. It designates the ninth month of the year (2 Kgs 25:1; Jer 36:9, 22), the ninth day of a month, the ninth tribal offering in Numbers 7:60, and the ninth position in genealogical or military rosters (1 Chr 12:12; 24:11; 25:16; 27:12). The form appears with the article (hatteshi'i) for both masculine and feminine referents, reflecting standard Hebrew ordinal usage.
