SIBI-P1 H4376-18
he has sold him
| Morphological Notes | Qal perfect 3rd masculine singular verb with 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix (object). The suffix indicates the one sold is masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 3rd masculine singular form indicates a completed action by a male subject (“he has sold”), and the 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix specifies a masculine singular object (“him”). The rendering preserves the root sense of transferring or handing over in a commercial or surrendering sense. |
