his covered throne

Rootכסה (k-s-h)
Core Meaningscovering, concealing, sheltering, veiling
Semantic Rangeroyal throne, seat of authority, elevated chair of state, symbolic seat of rule or judgment
Conceptual SignificanceThe throne represents royal authority and sovereign rule, whether human or divine. When used of YHWH, it conveys His exalted kingship and heavenly sovereignty, evoking imagery of a majestic, canopied seat of supreme authority.
Morphological NotesCommon masculine singular noun in construct form with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix; literally "throne of him."
Rendering RationaleThe noun כִּסֵּא derives from the root כסה ("to cover"), originally referring to a seat with a covering or canopy. Rendering it "covered throne" preserves this root sense while "his" accurately reflects the masculine singular noun with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (HNcmsc/Sp3ms).
