its rounded-back
| Root | גב (g-b) |

| Semantic Range | Back of a person or object; top or upper surface; rim or edge; vault or arch (such as of an eye or structure); bulwark or raised boundary. |
| Conceptual Significance | The term conveys the idea of a raised or curved supporting surface, whether anatomical or architectural, emphasizing structure, support, and elevation within the physical imagery of the biblical text. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic noun (common masculine singular) in the determined state with a 3ms pronominal suffix (“-eh”), yielding “its back.” |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun גַּב denotes a back or curved surface, often something rounded or arched. The form includes a third-person masculine singular pronominal suffix in Aramaic (“-eh”), which is reflected by "its," and the singular sense of the noun is preserved in "rounded-back." |
