in the presence
| Morphological Notes | Common noun, plural form (plural of extension) in absolute state with prefixed preposition בְּ; though morphologically plural, it often functions as a singular concept. |
| Rendering Rationale | פָּנִים derives from the root meaning "to turn/face" and denotes the outward-facing surface or presence. With the prefixed בְּ ("in"), the form conveys being in the face or presence of something. |
