his set-apart sanctuary

Rootקדש (q-d-sh)
Core Meaningsholiness, separateness, consecration, set-apartness
Semantic Rangesanctuary, holy place, consecrated space, temple precinct, sacred dwelling, asylum
Conceptual Significanceמִקְדָּשׁ signifies the designated dwelling place of the divine presence, a space set apart from common use. It embodies the biblical theology of holiness, where physical space is marked off to reflect YHWH’s distinctness and covenantal nearness.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct form (מִקְדַּשׁ) with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (־וֹ), yielding "his sanctuary."
Rendering RationaleThe noun מִקְדָּשׁ derives from the root קדש, meaning "to be set apart" or "to be holy." Rendering it as "set-apart sanctuary" preserves the core idea of consecrated space, and the 3rd masculine singular suffix is reflected by "his," accurately representing the construct form with pronominal suffix.
