SIBI-P1 H7311-23
he was lifted high
| Root | רום (r-w-m) |
| Core Meanings | height, elevation, rising, lifting, exaltation |
| Semantic Range | to be physically lifted, to be raised up, to be exalted in status, to be elevated in honor, to be offered up (as something lifted in sacrifice) |
| Conceptual Significance | The root רום frequently expresses exaltation—whether of persons, kings, or YHWH Himself—linking physical height with honor and divine supremacy. In passive forms it often underscores that exaltation comes from an external agent, ultimately pointing to divine action in raising up or humbling individuals. |
| Morphological Notes | Hophal perfect 3rd masculine singular of רום; causative passive, indicating that a male subject was caused to be raised or exalted. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root רום conveys the idea of being high or raising up. In the Hophal stem (causative passive) perfect 3rd masculine singular, the form means "he was caused to be raised" or "he was lifted." Rendering it as "he was lifted high" preserves both the elevation inherent in the root and the passive causative sense of the Hophal, while reflecting the 3ms morphology. |
