SIBI-P1 H7628-01

in the captivity

Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ ("in") with assimilated definite article הַ־, attached to a common singular absolute noun (Ncbsa). The form is singular and definite: "in the captivity."
Rendering RationaleThe noun שְׁבִי derives from the root שבה, "to take captive," and denotes the state or condition resulting from being seized and carried away. The prefixed בַּ־ ("in the," preposition + definite article) and singular absolute form require the rendering "in the captivity," preserving both the definite article and singular sense.
