of the rising
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine, singular, genitive — indicating possession, source, or relation. |
| Rendering Rationale | The genitive singular form denotes possession or source, rendered as "of the rising," preserving the core idea of an upward emergence (especially of the sun) without narrowing it to a specific contextual sense like "east." |
