SIBI-P1 H3201-21
he is able
| Root | יכל (y-k-l) |
| Core Meanings | ability, capacity, power, prevailing strength, endurance |
| Semantic Range | to be able, to have capacity, to prevail, to endure, to have power, to overcome, to be capable (morally or physically) |
| Conceptual Significance | The verb often highlights human limitation in contrast to divine omnipotence, underscoring that true prevailing power belongs to יהוה. It marks the boundary between inability and empowered action, frequently shaping narratives of dependence, judgment, and deliverance. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular. The Qal stem conveys simple or stative action; the imperfect expresses incomplete, ongoing, future, or modal nuance. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular form expresses ongoing or potential ability attributed to a single male subject. "He is able" preserves the core sense of inherent capacity or prevailing power embedded in the root יכל while accurately reflecting the masculine singular verbal form. |
