and they begot
| Root | ילד (y-l-d) |
| Core Meanings | birth, begetting, bringing forth, generating offspring, lineage |
| Semantic Range | to bear (as a woman), to beget (as a man), to bring forth offspring, to give birth, to produce descendants, to declare lineage |
| Conceptual Significance | The verb ילד is central to biblical concepts of covenant continuity, genealogy, and inheritance. It marks the transmission of promises, tribal identity, and covenant blessing through successive generations. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ plus Qal wayyiqtol (waw-consecutive imperfect) 3rd masculine plural from ילד. Narrative past tense: "and they begot." |
| Rendering Rationale | The root ילד fundamentally denotes bringing forth or generating offspring. In the Qal stem with waw-consecutive (HC/Vqw3mp), the form is a third masculine plural wayyiqtol, narrating past action: "and they begot." The rendering preserves the active, simple stem (Qal) and the masculine plural subject. |
