SIBI-P1 H8432-21
midst-of
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in construct state (HNcmsc). The construct form binds the word to a following noun, expressing possession or spatial relation ("the midst of …"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun תּוֹךְ is a masculine singular construct form, requiring the sense "midst of" to link it grammatically to a following noun. Rendering it as "midst-of" preserves both the construct relationship and the root idea of a central or bisected interior space. |
