SIBI-P1 H3205-20
he caused to be born
| Root | ילד (y-l-d) |
| Core Meanings | bearing, bringing forth, birth, begetting, generation, lineage |
| Semantic Range | to beget, to father, to cause to be born, to bring forth offspring, to establish lineage, to produce descendants |
| Conceptual Significance | This verb is central to biblical genealogies and covenantal continuity, marking the transmission of life, promise, and inheritance through generations. It underscores the importance of lineage in Israel’s identity and the unfolding of redemptive history. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil stem (causative), perfect aspect, 3rd person masculine singular from יָלַד. In the Hiphil, the verb commonly denotes a male subject begetting or fathering a child. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Hiphil perfect 3rd masculine singular, indicating a causative action performed by a male subject in completed aspect. Rendering it as "he caused to be born" preserves the causative force of the Hiphil stem and reflects the masculine singular subject, while maintaining the root idea of bringing forth offspring. |
