SIBI-P1 Translation H3027-68
two hands
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common; dual number; absolute state; from the root יד. |
| Rendering Rationale | The dual form explicitly denotes a pair, referring to the two physical hands as organs of grasping and action. Rendering it as "two hands" preserves both the root meaning of the open, active hand and the dual morphology. |
