SIBI-P1 H3844-01

in the White-Mountain

Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ (in) + definite article הַ (assimilated to ל) + proper noun masculine singular לְבָנוֹן. The dagesh in ל reflects article assimilation. Marked as a proper noun (Np).
Rendering RationaleThe name לְבָנוֹן derives from the root לבן, "to be white," likely referring to its snow-capped peaks. The form בַּ/לְּבָנוֹן includes the preposition בְּ ("in") with the definite article assimilated ("the"), yielding "in the White-Mountain," preserving both the root meaning and the definite proper noun form.
