SIBI-P1 H8216-01
in the low-lying place
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ with assimilated definite article (בַּ־) + masculine singular noun שֶׁפֶל in the absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שֶׁפֶל derives from the root שפל, conveying lowness or low condition. The prefixed בַּ־ is the preposition "in" with the definite article, and the noun is masculine singular absolute, yielding "in the low-lying place," which preserves both the spatial sense and the root idea of lowness. |
