SIBI-P1 H1004-22

their father-house

Rootבית (b-y-t)
Core Meaningshouse, enclosure, household, container, family
Semantic RangePhysical house or building; household or family unit; temple or divine dwelling; court, palace, prison; metaphorical container or place of containment.
Conceptual SignificanceRepresents covenantal family structures under patriarchal authority, God's dwelling among Israel (e.g., 'house of God'), and communal identity; underscores themes of belonging, protection, and divine presence in biblical theology.
Morphological NotesNoun, common masculine singular construct (HNcmsc) with 3rd person masculine plural suffix (Sp3mp); construct state indicates possession, vocalized as bēṯām with tone variations.
Rendering Rationale'Father-house' preserves the core semantics of בית as an enclosure under paternal authority (from related בנה 'to build' and אב 'father'), emphasizing household collectivity over mere physical structure; the masculine singular construct form (HNcmsc) is reflected in 'father-house,' and the 3mp pronominal suffix (Sp3mp) in 'their' specifies masculine plural possessors.
