SIBI-P1 H2789-04
an earthenware shard
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew noun, common masculine singular absolute (HNcmsa). No article or pronominal suffix; simple singular form. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun is masculine singular absolute (HNcmsa), so the rendering is singular and indefinite. "Earthenware shard" preserves the root sense of baked clay or pottery (חרס), reflecting the material substance rather than generalizing to "earth" or "stone." |
