Morphological NotesVerb from root אכל in the Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol) form; morphologies attested: 2ms and 3fs. The prefixed ת marks either second masculine singular or third feminine singular in the Qal imperfect.
Rendering RationaleThe form תֹאכֵל is Qal imperfect, which in this spelling can denote either second masculine singular ("you will eat") or third feminine singular ("she will eat"). The rendering preserves the simple active sense of the Qal stem (to eat, consume) and reflects the grammatical gender and number inherent in the morphology.
