SIBI-P1 Translation H3820-01
in the inner core of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ + masculine singular common noun in construct state from לֵב (root לבב). |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition בְּ ("in") combined with the masculine singular construct noun לֵב yields "in the inner core of," preserving the root idea of interiority and centrality. The construct state requires a following genitive, hence the relational sense "of." |
