Morphological Notes	Preposition בְּ ("in") + proper noun masculine singular הָם; no article; functions as a locative phrase.
Rendering Rationale	The form consists of the preposition בְּ ("in") attached to the proper noun הָם (Hām). Since the name’s root meaning is uncertain, the most faithful rendering preserves the transliterated place-name while accurately reflecting the prefixed preposition.
