SIBI-P1 H8605-06
an interceding-plea
| Morphological Notes | Common feminine singular noun in the absolute state (HNcfsa); derived noun form indicating an act or instance of interceding. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun תְּפִלָּה derives from the root פלל, which carries the sense of judging, mediating, or interceding. "An interceding-plea" preserves this root idea of mediated appeal rather than using the more generalized term "prayer." The form is feminine singular absolute, reflected in the singular English rendering without possessive or plural modification. |
