he created
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew verb, Qal stem, perfect (suffix conjugation), 3rd person masculine singular from the root ברא (H1254). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form בָּרֵא is Qal perfect 3rd masculine singular, indicating a completed action performed by a masculine singular subject. Rendering it as "he created" preserves both the simple active stem (Qal) and the core root meaning of bringing into being or shaping. |
