and faces of

Morphological NotesConjunction ו + common noun, plural construct form of פָּנִים (plural of extension, usually singular in sense).
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root meaning "to turn/face," denoting what is turned outward and visible. The plural construct form פְנֵי is rendered "faces of," preserving both the plural morphology and its construct relationship, with the prefixed conjunction "and."
