SIBI-P1 H1366-18
his boundary-line
| Morphological Notes | Common masculine singular noun in construct (גְּבוּל) with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (וֹ), yielding "his boundary." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun גְּבוּל derives from the root גבל, "to bound or enclose," originally referring to a cord marking off limits. As a masculine singular noun in construct form with a 3rd masculine singular suffix ("his"), the rendering "his boundary-line" preserves both the possessive suffix and the concrete sense of a marked limit. |
