SIBI-P1 Translation H7863-01
his exalted height
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular common noun in construct state with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun denotes that which is lifted up or elevated, derived from the root meaning "to lift up, exalt." The construct form with a 3rd masculine singular suffix requires a possessive rendering, hence "his," and preserves the idea of something raised to prominence. |
