visible appearance
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular, absolute state; nominal formation (מַקְטֵל pattern) from ראה indicating the result of the action (that which is seen). |
| Rendering Rationale | As a masculine singular noun in the מַקְטֵל pattern derived from ראה ("to see"), מַרְאֶה denotes the result of seeing—"that which is seen." "Visible appearance" preserves the root sense of sight while reflecting the concrete nominal form. |
