SIBI-P1 H8478-09
under him
| Morphological Notes | Preposition תַּחַת ("under, beneath, in place of") with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix -יו, yielding "under him / in his place." |
| Rendering Rationale | The base word תַּחַת conveys the idea of what is beneath or in a lower position, and by extension what replaces another. With the 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (-יו), the form תַּחְתָּיו means "under him" or "in his place." The rendering preserves both the spatial root sense (beneath) and the masculine singular reference. |
