and he went out
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, sequential imperfect (vav-consecutive), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem expresses the simple action of going out or emerging, and the sequential imperfect (vav-consecutive) 3ms form conveys a past narrative movement by a masculine singular subject. The rendering preserves both the root sense of outward movement and the masculine singular morphology. |
