thus, in an established way
| Morphological Notes | Adverbial particle derived from the root כון; invariant form with no gender, number, or person marking. |
| Rendering Rationale | כֵּן derives from the root כון, "to be firm, established, set upright." As an adverbial particle (HTm), it does not carry gender or number, so the rendering reflects its function while preserving the root sense of firmness or established order—"thus" in the sense of something being set or confirmed in a certain way. |
