builder-sons

Rootבנה (b-n-h)
Core Meaningsto build, construct, establish, son as family builder
Semantic RangeLiteral sons/descendants; figurative: members of a group, tribe, nation (e.g., Bene Israel = children of Israel), extended kin, followers, or those sharing a quality/condition.
Conceptual SignificanceEmphasizes patrilineal continuity, covenantal identity (e.g., Bene Israel as God's chosen), and familial building in Israelite society; underscores generational promises of God, extending to spiritual sonship in biblical theology.
Morphological NotesHNcmpc: Noun, common (masculine), masculine plural, construct state; the form בְּנֵי is the bound plural construct of בֵּן, used before a following noun to mean 'sons of'.
Rendering RationaleThis rendering preserves the root בנה (to build) by emphasizing 'builder-sons,' linking sons to their role in building and perpetuating the family name and lineage; it reflects the morphology HNcmpc as masculine plural construct ('sons of'), suitable for a genitive construction denoting affiliation or descent.
