incense-smoke

Morphological NotesCommon feminine singular noun (HNcfsa/HNcfsc), appearing in both absolute and construct states; no pronominal suffixes in the cited forms.
Rendering RationaleThe noun קְטֹרֶת is a feminine singular form derived from the root קטר, "to cause smoke to rise" or "to burn as incense." Rendering it as "incense-smoke" preserves the core idea of fragrant smoke ascending, rather than merely the substance itself. The singular form reflects the feminine singular morphology (absolute or construct) attested in the data.
