Hi Ari, I failed to mention in that last email that, the second passage I quoted from GKC relates in particular to the second verse you mentioned in 1 Chron 9:32.
So what I think is happening here is that in neither of these cases is there a true construct involved. Rather, in Num 28:10, the first word is pointed as a construct, as happens in other places in the Hebrew Bible where the same thing happens in a prepositional phrase. In the 1 Chron 9:32 passage, the two words are not strictly in construct, but falls in line with what sometimes happens in other appositional instances, where the first word is pointed as if construct.
