SIBI-P1 H5068-02

the one who freely offers himself

Morphological NotesHithpael participle, masculine singular absolute, with prefixed definite article (הַ). The stem conveys reflexive or self-initiated action: one who makes himself willing or volunteers.
Rendering RationaleThe Hithpael participle expresses reflexive action—one who impels himself or volunteers of his own will. Rendering it as "the one who freely offers himself" preserves the root sense of inner prompting and voluntary action, while reflecting the masculine singular participial form with the definite article.
