SIBI-P1 H8548-01
the Continuance
| Morphological Notes | Definite article (הַ) + masculine singular noun absolute (תָּמִיד). Functions substantivally, often as a technical term for the regular daily offering. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form הַתָּמִיד is a masculine singular absolute noun with the definite article, so it is rendered as a singular substantive, "the Continuance." This preserves the root sense of ongoing, unbroken duration (תמד) while reflecting the definite, masculine singular morphology. |
