and to his mother
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + preposition לְ + noun feminine singular construct אֵם + 3ms suffix וֹ ("his"). The construct form links the noun to the pronominal suffix, indicating possession. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אֵם is feminine singular, here in construct form with a 3ms pronominal suffix ("his"), governed by the preposition לְ ("to") and preceded by the conjunction וְ ("and"). The rendering preserves the feminine singular noun "mother" and the third masculine singular possessive, accurately reflecting the morphology while maintaining the core maternal sense of the root. |
