and with a building-stone
| Root | אבן (ʾ-b-n) |
| Core Meanings | stone, building material, construction element, weight |
| Semantic Range | stone, building stone, masonry stone, precious stone, weight-stone, hailstone; by extension, materials of construction or instruments made of stone. |
| Conceptual Significance | אֶבֶן frequently denotes foundational or structural stones in biblical thought, contributing to imagery of building, permanence, testimony stones, and cornerstone theology. Its association with building links it conceptually to themes of establishment, endurance, and covenant memorials. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + preposition בְ + noun אֶבֶן (common feminine singular absolute). No pronominal suffix; singular and feminine in grammatical gender. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form וּבְאֶבֶן consists of the conjunction וְ ("and") plus the preposition בְ ("with/by") attached to the feminine singular noun אֶבֶן. Rendering it as "and with a building-stone" preserves the singular feminine noun and reflects the root connection to בנה ("to build"), highlighting the stone as a construction element rather than a generic rock. |
