Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ + masculine singular common noun in construct state (תּוֹךְ).
Rendering RationaleThe noun תָּוֶךְ denotes the middle or interior portion—what is separated off from the edges. In construct with the prefixed preposition בְּ, it forms the fixed construct phrase "in the midst of," preserving both the spatial sense of interior center and the construct relationship.
