SIBI-P1 Translation H3045-109

and it became known

Morphological NotesVerb, Niphal stem, sequential perfect (waw-consecutive), 3rd person masculine singular.
Rendering RationaleThe Niphal stem of ידע expresses a passive or reflexive sense, meaning "to be known" or "to become known." The sequential perfect (waw-consecutive) 3ms form conveys a past narrative action, hence "and it became known," preserving both passive nuance and singular masculine morphology.
