SIBI-P1 Translation H5869-05
in his eyes
| Morphological Notes | Preposition בְּ + noun common dual construct עֵינֵי (contracted עֵינָ) + 3ms pronominal suffix; literally "in the eyes of him." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun עַיִן in dual construct with a 3ms suffix literally denotes "eyes of him." With the prefixed preposition בְּ, it yields "in his eyes," preserving the anatomical sense while allowing its extended meaning of perception or viewpoint inherent in the root. |
