SIBI-P1 Translation H5234-25
he will recognize
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil stem (causative), imperfect conjugation, 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative or declarative force to the root נכר, expressing the act of recognizing or treating something as distinct. The imperfect 3rd masculine singular form is rendered as "he will recognize," preserving both person and number. |
