SIBI-P1 H5117-22
and he caused to rest
| Morphological Notes | Verb, wayyiqtol (vav-consecutive imperfect) 3rd person masculine singular; attested in both Qal ("and he rested") and Hiphil ("and he caused to rest") stems under this lexeme; the highlighted form reflects the causative nuance in narrative sequence. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root נוח conveys the idea of settling down or coming to rest. In the Hiphil stem (as reflected in the morphology), the verb is causative, meaning "to cause to rest" or "to give rest." The form is wayyiqtol 3rd person masculine singular, therefore rendered "and he caused to rest," preserving both the narrative past sense and masculine singular subject. |
