| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + definite article + adjective; feminine singular absolute of רִאשׁוֹן. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adjective רִאשׁוֹנָה (feminine singular) denotes what is first or foremost in time or order. The prefixed בָּ adds the sense "in" or "at," yielding "in the first," preserving both the root sense of precedence and the feminine singular form. |
