heights of
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine plural, construct state (from מָרוֹם). |
| Rendering Rationale | The plural construct form of מָרוֹם expresses multiple elevated places or realms in relationship to something following, thus "heights of." This preserves the root idea of elevation or exaltation and reflects the masculine plural construct morphology. |
