and he responded
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction waw + Qal wayyiqtol (Vqw3ms); third masculine singular. Narrative past form commonly used to advance storyline dialogue. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a waw-consecutive (wayyiqtol) Qal verb, third masculine singular, indicating a completed past narrative action: "and he responded." The rendering preserves the core root sense of giving an answer or reply while accurately reflecting the masculine singular subject and sequential narrative force. |
