and his vestibules
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + masculine plural construct noun אֵילָם + 3ms pronominal suffix; noun common masculine plural construct with third masculine singular possession. |
| Rendering Rationale | אֵילָם denotes a structurally supported entrance hall or portico, rooted in the idea of strength and pillar-support (איל). The masculine plural construct with 3ms suffix yields “his vestibules,” and the prefixed ו adds “and.” |
