in his force

Rootחיל (ḥ-y-l)
Core Meaningsstrength, force, might, capability, army, wealth
Semantic Rangestrength, military force, army, might, capability, valor, wealth or resources
Conceptual Significanceחַיִל expresses concentrated strength—whether martial, economic, or personal—often signifying organized power under authority. In biblical usage it can denote the tangible expression of a ruler’s might, such as his army, embodying both strength and structured capacity.
Morphological NotesAramaic noun, masculine singular construct (Ncmsc) with 3ms pronominal suffix ("his"), prefixed by בְּ ("in"). Corresponds to Hebrew חַיִל.
Rendering RationaleThe noun חַיִל (ḥayil) denotes strength or organized force, often expressed as an army. The form is masculine singular construct with a 3rd person masculine singular suffix, preceded by the preposition בְּ ("in"), yielding "in his force," which preserves both the root idea of strength and the possessive morphology.
