The function of נות בית

  • Although LXX translates as a dative of indirect object here (ὡραιότητι τοῦ οἴκου ‘...for the beauty of the house’ [NETS]), all other ancient versions and modern translations understand this phrase as the subject of the following verb.
    • Aquilla: καὶ ὡραιότης οἴκου μερίζεται λάφυρα
    • Symmachus: καὶ ἡ δίαιτα τοῦ οἴκου διανέμει λάφυρα
