Constructions001003002
This lexeme has no tagged occurrence in the running text of the tagged critical edition; the sense "net" is drawn from the word's own gloss and standard lexicographic derivation rather than from an attested citation of its own. Its cognate שְׂבָכָה (sᵉbâkâh, H7639) ("checker, lattice, network, snare, wreath"), which does carry 16 genuine tagged occurrences of a closely related network/lattice sense, similarly does not independently confirm this Constructions domain code for שָׂבָךְ (sâbâk, H7638) itself, which is bundle-shared from the fact-packet's cognate cluster.
