| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular, construct state, with prefixed conjunction וּ ("and"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun בַּיִת derives from the root בנה, denoting a built structure or established household. The construct singular form בֵית requires a following genitive, hence "house of," and the prefixed וּ adds "and." |
