SIBI-P1 H4284-10
his devisings
| Morphological Notes | Feminine plural noun in construct form (מַחְשְׁבוֹת) with 3ms pronominal suffix (־ָיו), yielding "his ..."; from the root חשב in the Qal stem meaning "to think/plan." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מַחֲשָׁבָה derives from חָשַׁב (ḥ-š-b), "to think, reckon, devise." The form is feminine plural construct with a 3rd masculine singular suffix, literally "the devisings of him," hence "his devisings," preserving both the plural number and the possessive relationship. |
