net of possession
| Morphological Notes | Feminine singular common noun in construct state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun רֶשֶׁת denotes a woven device that captures or takes possession of what it ensnares, reflecting the root idea of ירשׁ (to possess or dispossess). The construct state is preserved by rendering it as "net of ...," here expressed abstractly as "possession." |
