his built-daughter

Rootבנה (b-n-h)
Core Meaningsto build, construct, establish, make firm
Semantic RangeDaughter (literal female offspring); female descendant; member of a group or place (e.g., daughter of Zion); branch or dependent community; figurative expressions such as "daughter of the eye."
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical culture, a daughter represents both familial continuity and covenantal belonging within a "house" that is being built and established. The metaphorical uses (e.g., daughter of Zion) reflect communal identity and relational covenant structure within Israel’s theology.
Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun in construct form (בִּתּ) with 3ms pronominal suffix (־וֹ), yielding "his daughter."
Rendering RationaleThe noun בַּת (daughter) is traditionally connected to the root בנה (to build), reflecting the idea of one who is "built" into a household. The form is feminine singular in construct with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix, hence "his" and singular feminine "daughter" are preserved in the rendering.
