SIBI-P1 Translation H1390-02
in hill of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְ + feminine singular noun in construct state (גִּבְעַת) from גבע. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun גִּבְעַת is feminine singular construct from גִּבְעָה (“hill”), with the prefixed preposition בְ (“in”). The construct state requires a following complement, so “in hill of” preserves both the root sense of elevation and the grammatical linkage. |
