SIBI-P1 Translation H6685-08
and fast-of
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular, construct state, prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צוֹם denotes a period or act of fasting, derived directly from the root meaning "to abstain." The construct singular form requires linkage to a following noun, hence "fast-of," with the prefixed conjunction rendered as "and." |
