his prominent crop
| Morphological Notes | Feminine singular noun in construct state (מֻרְאַת) + 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix; technical anatomical term. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from ראה in a passive/resultative sense, denoting something visible or conspicuous. As a feminine singular construct with a 3ms suffix, it is rendered "his prominent crop," preserving both the anatomical sense and the pronominal suffix. |
