SIBI-P1 Translation H6763-09
his side
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common gender, singular construct + 3ms pronominal suffix. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun צֵלָע denotes a side or lateral element derived from the root idea of leaning or being on one side. In singular construct with a 3rd masculine singular suffix, it yields the possessed form "his side," preserving both root meaning and morphology. |
