opening-gate of
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew noun, common masculine singular construct (HNcmsc). The construct state links the noun to a following genitive, indicating possession or association ("gate of …"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שַׁעַר derives from the root שער, conveying the idea of an opening or access point. As a masculine singular noun in the construct state (HNcmsc), it requires an "of" relationship, hence "opening-gate of," preserving both its singular form and its relational (construct) function. |
