SIBI-P1 H1855-07
and she caused to crumble
| Root | דקק (d-q-q) |
| Core Meanings | to crumble, crush, pulverize, make fine, break into small pieces |
| Semantic Range | to crush, pulverize, grind down, break into fragments, reduce to powder, shatter completely |
| Conceptual Significance | This root conveys total reduction and decisive breaking, often symbolizing the complete destruction or humbling of an object, kingdom, or power. In biblical imagery, what is "crumbled" is rendered powerless and reduced to nothing, highlighting divine sovereignty over what appears strong. |
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic verb; Haphel (causative) perfect 3fs with prefixed conjunction וְ ("and"). The Haphel corresponds to the Hebrew Hiphil, indicating causative action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Aramaic Haphel stem is causative, so the action is "to cause to crumble/crush." The form is perfect 3rd feminine singular with prefixed conjunction, thus "and she caused to crumble," preserving both the causative force of the stem and the feminine singular subject. |
