SIBI-P1 H1818-01
in the lifeblood
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ with assimilated definite article + noun דָּם, common masculine singular absolute (Ncmsa). The article is marked by dagesh forte in ד. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form בַּדָּם consists of the preposition בְּ ("in") with the definite article assimilated ("the") attached to the masculine singular noun דָּם ("blood"). Rendering it as "in the lifeblood" preserves the singular definite sense while highlighting the root idea of blood as the life-bearing substance whose shedding brings death. |
