SIBI-P1 Translation H5869-17
in his eye
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ + noun common singular construct עֵין + 3ms pronominal suffix; masculine singular possession. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עַיִן means "eye" in its primary anatomical sense, and the prefixed בְּ indicates "in." The singular construct form with 3ms suffix yields "his eye," preserving both possession and number. |
