SIBI-P1 Translation H127-11
in the cultivated ground
| Morphological Notes | Preposition ב + definite article + feminine singular absolute noun. |
| Rendering Rationale | The preposition ב with the definite article marks location: "in the." The feminine singular noun אֲדָמָה denotes the arable, life-producing soil derived from the root אדם, so "cultivated ground" preserves its agricultural and earth-based sense. |
