SIBI-P1 H4296-07
his stretched-out bed
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common feminine singular construct (מִטַּת) with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (-וֹ), yielding "his bed." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מִטָּה derives from the root נָטָה ("to stretch out"), referring to something extended or spread out for reclining. Rendering it as "stretched-out bed" preserves this root imagery, while "his" reflects the third masculine singular pronominal suffix (Sp3ms) attached to the feminine singular construct form. |
