SIBI-P1 H3498-11

he was left over

Rootיתר (y-th-r)
Core Meaningsexcess, surplus, remainder, superiority, that which is left over
Semantic Rangeto remain, be left behind, survive, be in excess, constitute a remainder, endure after loss or judgment
Conceptual SignificanceThis term often contributes to the biblical theology of the remnant—those who "are left over" after judgment or calamity. It highlights YHWH’s preservation amid loss, underscoring both divine judgment (many removed) and mercy (some remain).
Morphological NotesVerb from root יתר in the Niphal stem; perfect (qatal) 3rd person masculine singular. Niphal here expresses a passive/intransitive sense: to be left, to remain.
Rendering RationaleThe Niphal stem conveys a passive or reflexive sense, and the perfect 3rd masculine singular form indicates a completed action affecting a single male subject. "He was left over" preserves both the passive nuance of Niphal and the root idea of surplus or remainder inherent in יתר.
