SIBI-P1 Translation H7725-129
and he caused to return
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative), sequential imperfect (waw-consecutive), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives the verb a causative force, indicating that the subject actively caused someone or something to turn back or be restored. The sequential imperfect with prefixed waw conveys a past narrative action, hence "and he caused to return." |
