SIBI-P1 H1-49

from your father (addressing you, woman)

Morphological NotesNoun common masculine singular construct (אָבִי) + 2fs pronominal suffix (ךְ) = "your father" (to a woman), with prefixed preposition מֵ־ (contracted from מִן, "from").
Rendering RationaleThe noun אָב (ʾâb) means "father" in both literal and extended senses. It appears here in the singular construct form with a 2nd feminine singular pronominal suffix ("your," addressed to a woman), and with the prefixed preposition מִן ("from"), yielding "from your father." The rendering preserves the paternal/source sense of the root and reflects the feminine singular addressee.
