Morphological NotesPreposition בְּ + feminine singular construct noun יַד + 3ms pronominal suffix; Aramaic form.
Rendering RationaleThe noun יַד means "hand" (feminine singular), here in construct with a 3rd masculine singular suffix ("his"), preceded by the preposition בְּ ("in/by"). "In his hand" preserves the literal anatomical sense while allowing for its extended meanings of agency or control.
