| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + noun, masculine plural construct (Aramaic form). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun קִטְרֵי is masculine plural construct from קְטַר, meaning "knot" or something bound up. Rendering it as "knots-of" preserves both the plural construct form and the core binding sense of the root. |
