SIBI-P1 H3615-61
and she came to completion
| Root | כלה (k-l-h) |
| Core Meanings | completion, finishing, ending, consumption, exhaustion |
| Semantic Range | to finish, come to an end, be completed, be exhausted, be consumed, perish; in transitive contexts, to complete or bring to an end |
| Conceptual Significance | The verb often marks the fulfillment or completion of actions, periods, or judgments in biblical narrative, highlighting themes of consummation—whether of tasks, allotted time, divine purposes, or even life itself. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction waw + Qal wayyiqtol (preterite) 3rd feminine singular from כלה. The form advances past narrative action and agrees with a feminine singular subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root כלה carries the core idea of bringing something to its full end or completion. The form is Qal wayyiqtol 3rd feminine singular, indicating a completed past action in narrative sequence, hence "and she came to completion," preserving both the feminine singular subject and the root sense of reaching an end. |
