in the daughter-of

Rootבנה (b-n-h)
Core Meaningsto build, construct, establish, bring forth, produce offspring
Semantic Rangefemale child, female descendant, member of a group ("daughter of Zion"), branch or offshoot, town or village (as a dependent settlement), apple of the eye (idiomatically).
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical thought, a "daughter" signifies not only biological offspring but also relational and covenantal identity (e.g., "daughter of Zion"). The term reflects familial continuity and communal belonging, rooted in the idea of being ‘built’ into a household or people.
Morphological NotesNoun, feminine singular construct (Ncfsc) with prefixed preposition בְּ (“in”). The construct form requires a following genitive to complete the sense ("daughter of …").
Rendering RationaleThe noun בַּת (bath) is the feminine singular construct form, here preceded by the preposition בְּ (“in”). The rendering "in the daughter-of" preserves the feminine singular construct relationship and reflects the root בנה (to build), from which "daughter" derives as the female offspring—one ‘built’ from the family line.
