and the abhorrence of

Rootתעב (t-ʿ-b)
Core Meaningsto abhor, detest, regard as loathsome, treat as ritually or morally repulsive
Semantic Rangeabomination, abhorrence, detestable act, ritually unclean practice, idolatrous object, morally repugnant custom
Conceptual Significanceתּוֹעֵבָה marks actions or objects that provoke covenantal revulsion, especially idolatry and practices contrary to YHWH’s holiness. It signals not mere dislike but a profound moral and ritual offensiveness that threatens the sanctity of the community.
Morphological NotesConjunction וְ + feminine singular noun in construct state (תּוֹעֲבַת). The construct form links it to a following noun, expressing possession or specification ("abhorrence of …").
Rendering RationaleThe noun תּוֹעֵבָה derives from the root תעב, "to abhor" or "to treat as loathsome." The form here is feminine singular construct (Ncfsc) with prefixed conjunction, so "and the abhorrence of" preserves both the singular feminine noun and its construct relationship requiring a following complement.
