and he caused to ascend
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative), sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem marks causative action, so the subject causes something to go up rather than ascending himself. The sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol) with 3ms subject is rendered as a past narrative action: "and he caused to ascend." |
