Morphological NotesConjunction וּ (and) + preposition בִּ (in/by/according to) + masculine singular construct noun דְבַר from דָּבָר. The construct state links the noun to a following genitive.
Rendering Rationaleדְבַר is a masculine singular noun in the construct state, here preceded by the conjunction וּ and the preposition בִּ. Rendering it as "word-of" preserves the construct relationship (requiring a following genitive) and keeps the singular sense of a specific spoken matter or declared thing.
