SIBI-P1 H3559-74
and-he-caused-to-be-firm
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction waw + Hiphil wayyiqtol (waw-consecutive imperfect) 3rd masculine singular from כון; causative active verbal form indicating completed past narrative action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root כון conveys the idea of being firm, established, or set in place. In the Hiphil stem (causative) with a waw-consecutive imperfect 3rd masculine singular form, the verb means "he caused to be firm" or "he established." The rendering preserves both the causative force of the Hiphil and the masculine singular subject expressed in the morphology. |
