SIBI-P1 H7857-11
and he surged-flooded
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, waw-consecutive (vav-conversive) with 3rd masculine singular perfect form (HC/Vqq3ms). The prefixed וְ functions narratively as "and," advancing past action in sequence. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root שטף conveys the force of gushing or flooding that overwhelms what stands before it. Rendered as "and he surged-flooded," the translation preserves the vivid sense of an overpowering rush while reflecting the Qal stem (simple active) and the 3rd masculine singular form with prefixed conjunction ("and he"). |
