and his house
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ + noun masculine singular construct בֵית + 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | בֵית is the masculine singular construct form of בַּיִת (“house”), here joined by the conjunction וּ (“and”) and marked with a 3ms suffix (“his”). The rendering preserves the built-structure sense of the root בנה while reflecting the singular form and possessive morphology. |
