> {Qov 'oHbogh HoD} would mean "the captain, who is Qov"
Sorry to nitpick, but shouldn't that be {Qov ghaHbogh HoD}, since the captain is presumably a being capable of using language?
Also, tangentially: would you need {'e'} when one of the pronouns is used verbally in a relative clause like that? "The captain is Qov" would traditionally be {Qov ghaH HoD'e'}, if I'm not mistaken.
