SIBI-P1 H1358-02
to a hollowed pit
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun, masculine singular construct (Ncmsc) from גֹּב, with prefixed preposition לְ (“to/into”). Occurs in Biblical Aramaic (e.g., Daniel). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun גֹּב (Aramaic) denotes a pit or den, derived from a root conveying the idea of something hollowed out or excavated. The form is masculine singular construct (Ncmsc) with the prefixed preposition לְ (“to/into”), so the rendering preserves the singular masculine sense and the directional force: “to a hollowed pit.” |
