and my commands
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction ו + feminine plural construct noun מִצְוֹת + 1st person common singular suffix; "and my commands." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun derives from צוה, denoting that which is commanded. The feminine plural construct form with first-person singular suffix yields "my commands," and the prefixed conjunction ו adds "and." |
