SIBI-P1 Translation H1961-106
he will come to be
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular expresses incomplete or future action of the root היה. "He will come to be" preserves both the existential and dynamic sense of becoming inherent in the root while reflecting the masculine singular form. |
