SIBI-P1 H5536-01

in the raised-woven basket

Morphological NotesNoun, common masculine singular absolute (Ncmsa) with prefixed preposition בְּ plus definite article ("in the"). No pronominal suffix. Occurs three times in this form.
Rendering RationaleThe noun סַל (masculine singular absolute) is derived from the root סלל, "to heap up" or "raise up," likely referring to something built up or woven together. The prefixed בַּ־ is the preposition "in" with the definite article, yielding "in the." The rendering "raised-woven basket" preserves the sense of something constructed or built up from the root while maintaining masculine singular form.
