he caused to turn about

Morphological NotesHiphil (causative) stem, perfect aspect, 3rd person masculine singular of סבב.
Rendering RationaleThe root סבב conveys the idea of turning or going around. In the Hiphil stem, the verb is causative, so rather than simply 'he turned,' the form means 'he caused to turn about.' The morphology (Hiphil perfect 3rd masculine singular) is reflected in the past tense and the subject 'he.'
