of the heave offering
An offering or contribution set apart from a larger whole, typically as a dedicated gift for sacred or communal use—especially in ritual, cultic, or priestly contexts. The term most often denotes a portion of agricultural produce or other goods dedicated to the sanctuary, priests, or the community, removed from ordinary use and considered sanctified through the act of separation and dedication. In some contexts refers more specifically to the 'heave offering,' which was lifted or elevated as a ritual gesture when presented. The semantic range includes: offering, contribution, dedicated gift, portion set aside for sacred use, elevated/heave offering.

SIBI-P1 Translation H8641-01
in the raised-up offering of
| Morphological Notes | Noun, feminine singular construct (תְרוּמַת) with prefixed preposition בְּ ("in/with"). |
| Rendering Rationale | תְּרוּמָה derives from רוּם, "to raise up," denoting that which is lifted or set apart. The feminine singular construct form תְרוּמַת, with prefixed בְּ, yields "in the raised-up offering of," preserving both the elevation concept and the construct relationship. |
