in his days

Rootיום (y-w-m)
Core Meaningsday, warm hours, time period, season
Semantic RangeLiteral day (sunrise to sunset); extended to any time period, age, season, lifetime, or indefinitely ('ever'); often adverbial with בְּ indicating 'during' or 'in the time of'.
Conceptual Significance'In his days' often evaluates a king's reign (e.g., 2 Kings 15:1) or marks eschatological fulfillment (e.g., 'in those days'), underscoring themes of divine timing, covenantal eras, and the progression of redemptive history in Scripture.
Morphological NotesHR/Ncmpc/Sp3ms: Preposition + Noun common masculine plural construct + suffix 3ms (בְּ + יָמָי + ו).
Rendering RationaleThis rendering preserves the core meaning of 'day' from the root יום, emphasizing periods of time, and directly reflects the morphology as a masculine plural noun (Ncmpc) in construct state with a 3ms pronominal suffix ('his'), commonly translated as 'in his days'. The preposition בְּ ('in') is included to match the surface form בְּיָמָיו. It maintains grammatical gender (masculine), number (plural), and person (3ms possessive).
