SIBI-P1 Translation H6493-01
sighted one
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular adjective (qal active participial form) in the absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The term derives from the root meaning "to open" the eyes, hence "one who sees." Rendering it as "sighted one" preserves the qal active participial sense of a masculine singular person characterized by opened eyes—physically or perceptively. |
