SIBI-P1 H1130-01

son (masculine singular; in construct: son of)

Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun (HNcmsa = absolute; HNcmsc = construct). No pronominal suffix in these forms. Construct state expresses filial or associative relationship ("son of").
Rendering RationaleThe noun בֵּן derives from the root בנה ("to build"), reflecting the ancient concept of a son as the one who "builds up" the father’s house and name. The morphology indicates a common masculine singular noun, appearing both in absolute ("son") and construct ("son of") forms, which the rendering preserves explicitly.
