and causing-to-fall
| Root | נפל (n-p-l) |
| Core Meanings | falling, collapse, descent, overthrow, falling away |
| Semantic Range | to cause to fall, cast down, overthrow, bring down, cause defeat, make collapse, bring ruin |
| Conceptual Significance | The causative form highlights agency in bringing about downfall or judgment. In biblical theology, YHWH is often portrayed as the one who causes nations or the proud to fall, underscoring divine sovereignty over rise and collapse. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil participle, masculine singular absolute, with prefixed conjunction ו ("and"). The Hiphil stem gives a causative force to the root "to fall." |
| Rendering Rationale | The root נפל conveys the idea of falling or collapse. In the Hiphil stem it takes a causative sense, "to cause to fall" or "to cast down." The masculine singular participle form is reflected by the active participial rendering "causing-to-fall," with the prefixed conjunction represented by "and." |
