to descend

Rootירד (y-r-d)
Core Meaningsdescent, downward movement, lowering, coming down, bringing down
Semantic Rangeto go down physically (from higher to lower place), to descend to a land (e.g., Egypt), to go down to Sheol, to decline or diminish, to fall in status, or to move downward geographically or metaphorically
Conceptual SignificanceDescent in the Hebrew Bible often marks transitions—geographical (going down to Egypt), existential (going down to Sheol), or spiritual (decline or humbling). The root conveys both literal movement and symbolic lowering, shaping narratives of exile, judgment, humility, and mortality.
Morphological NotesQal infinitive construct of יָרַד with prefixed preposition ל ("to"). No gender, number, or person marking; expresses purpose, result, or complementary action.
Rendering RationaleThe form is a Qal infinitive construct with prefixed ל, expressing purpose or result: "to descend." The rendering preserves the root idea of downward movement inherent in ירד and reflects the simple active (Qal) stem without adding causative nuance.
