and they fled away
| Root | נוס (n-w-s) |
| Core Meanings | flight, escape, retreat, vanishing, rapid departure |
| Semantic Range | to flee, escape, run away, retreat, take flight, vanish from before, be driven away (in passive or causative stems). |
| Conceptual Significance | Often used in contexts of battle, divine judgment, or fear, נוס highlights human vulnerability and the instinct to escape overwhelming threat. It can underscore divine power when enemies flee or human frailty when individuals retreat in fear. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, wayyiqtol (vav-consecutive imperfect), 3rd person masculine plural. Narrative past form indicating successive action in storyline. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is from the root נוס, conveying the idea of fleeing or rapidly escaping. The form is Qal wayyiqtol 3rd masculine plural, indicating a simple past narrative action performed by a masculine plural subject, hence "they fled." The addition of "away" reflects the root’s nuance of moving off or withdrawing from danger. |
