and they were gathered
| Morphological Notes | Verb; Niphal stem; sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol); 3rd person masculine plural. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem gives a passive or reflexive sense of the root אסף ('to gather'), here rendered passively as 'were gathered.' The sequential imperfect with 3rd person masculine plural is reflected in 'and they were gathered.' |
