Morphological NotesNoun common feminine singular construct (HNcfsc) from עֲבֹדָה. The construct form links it to a following noun, expressing possession or specification ("service of …").
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root עבד, meaning to work or serve. As a feminine singular construct form, it denotes "the service/labor of" something, requiring a following genitive; "service-labor of" preserves the core sense of work rendered in service while reflecting its construct state.
