at the foot
Situated lowest or beneath; that which is lowest in vertical order or hierarchical arrangement. When functioning as an adjective, it describes a location as 'the lowest' or 'lowermost,' particularly with reference to spatial relationships (e.g., the bottom layer of a structure, the lowest region of land), or as a superlative ('the lowest part'). As a substantive (usually feminine plural תַּחְתִּיּוֹת tachtiyyot), it can denote the lowest regions, depths, or the underworld (Sheol/realm of the dead), as well as the innermost or most concealed parts, such as the womb.
