A place enclosing a gathered flock · dominant
The feminine singular absolute form occurs in the comparison of Jacob and Israel's remnant being set together as a flock. In Micah 2:12 the APB renders the clause "like a flock in an enclosure," confirming the image of a flock contained in a place.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Micah 2:12, the APB presents the flock as being "in an enclosure." This wording confirms the clause's image without isolating every contribution of the Hebrew term.
