SIBI-P1 Translation H7130-12
from the interior of
| Morphological Notes | Preposition מִן + masculine singular construct noun קֶרֶב (common noun). |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
from the midst of
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'From the midst of' best matches the sense of 'miqerev' as the interior or center, while P1 'from the interior of' is less natural in context for describing a group of people or place; 'midst' fits better for the camp. |
