deleth

and the doors

A movable barrier or panel used to close or cover an entrance, primarily referring to the door of a dwelling or room, but also used for gates or coverings of other openings (e.g., temple, city gates, or metaphorically for something that encloses or protects). The term delineates both literal doors made of wood or other materials and, rarely, figurative 'doors' representing opportunity, access, or restriction.

SIBI-P1 Translation H1817-29

and the two hanging door-panels of

Morphological NotesConjunction + feminine dual noun in construct state (Ncfdc) from דֶּלֶת.
Rendering RationaleThe dual feminine construct form requires "two" and the construct marker "of." "Hanging door-panels" reflects the root דלה (to hang, to swing), preserving the image of a movable, suspended barrier rather than a generic "door."
