Exegesis
The construct chain ritṣp̣ah bat-Ayah {רִצְפָּ֥ה בַת־אַיָּ֖ה | riṣ-pāh bat-ʾāy-yāh} links person to lineage, while the appositional phrase pilegesh sha'ul {פִּלֶ֥גֶשׁ שָׁאֽוּל | pi-le-gesh šā-ʾûl} clarifies her social status. Hebrew VSO order is reordered to subject–verb–object in English to ensure clarity.
