the apportionments

Morphological NotesDefinite article הַ + noun מַחְלְקוֹת; common feminine plural absolute form of מַחֲלֹקֶת (H4256).
Rendering RationaleThe noun מַחֲלֹקֶת derives from the root חלק, "to divide or apportion." The form הַמַּחְלְקוֹת is feminine plural with the definite article ("the"), so "the apportionments" preserves both the root idea of divided or allotted portions and the plural definite morphology.
