Stretch out!
| Root | נטה (n-ṭ-h) |
| Core Meanings | stretching out, extending, spreading, inclining, bending, turning aside |
| Semantic Range | to stretch out the hand or staff, to extend or spread out (as heavens or a tent), to incline or bend, to turn aside, to direct or apply, to decline or slope downward |
| Conceptual Significance | Often used of YHWH stretching out His hand in power or of humans extending the hand in action, the verb conveys deliberate extension—whether in judgment, deliverance, prayer, or physical movement—highlighting purposeful direction and active engagement. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal imperative, 2nd person masculine singular (HVqv2ms). A direct command to a single male subject to perform the basic action of the root in its simple stem. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is Qal imperative, second masculine singular, from the root נ-ט-ה meaning "to stretch out" or "extend." "Stretch out!" preserves the core physical sense of extending or inclining and reflects the singular command addressed to one male individual. |
