his holiness
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun in construct state (קֹדֶשׁ) with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix; literally "holiness-of him." |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun קֹדֶשׁ denotes the state or quality of being set apart or sacred. In masculine singular construct form with a 3rd masculine singular suffix, it yields a possessive sense: "his holiness," preserving both the abstract root meaning and the pronominal suffix. |
