in the chariot
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + definite article + feminine singular common noun, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun מֶרְכָּבָה is a feminine singular formation from the root רכב, meaning "that which is ridden or driven," i.e., a chariot. The prefixed ב with the definite article yields "in the chariot," preserving both the root sense and the definite singular morphology. |
