the seven-cycle
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun, absolute state, with prefixed definite article (הַ). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun denotes a complete unit of seven derived from the root שבע (“to be seven”). Rendering it as “the seven-cycle” preserves the root sense and reflects the masculine singular absolute form with the definite article. |
