SIBI-P1 Translation H1934-09
let him be
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Peal stem (simple active), imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular, with prefixed ל marking volitive/jussive nuance. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Peal imperfect 3ms of הוה denotes simple being or becoming. With prefixed ל, it carries a volitive/jussive sense in Aramaic, thus rendered "let him be," preserving both the existential root meaning and masculine singular morphology. |
