House of Anat
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun; toponymic compound name; singular; feminine by form of ענת but functioning as a place name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name is a compound of בֵּית (house), derived from the root בנה "to build," and ענת, the proper name Anat. Rendering it "House of Anat" preserves both the building-derived element and the theophoric component of the toponym. |
