Why this meaning was chosen

All 41 family occurrences were reviewed on one page, with no protected segments or compacted candidates. Quran 2:125, 2:158, 22:26, and 22:29 anchor movement around the House; 24:58 extends recurring movement among a household; 68:19 pairs the finite verb with an agentive visitation that passes over the garden; and 29:14 anchors the engulfing flood. The 41 targets are partitioned by voice, form, participant, collective, visitation, and flood morphology. No witness-sensitive context or unresolved challenge remains.
