SIBI-P1 H2094-06

he was warned

Morphological NotesNiphal stem of זָהַר. Attested here as Niphal perfect 3rd person masculine singular (נִזְהָר = "he was warned") and as Niphal participle masculine singular absolute ("one being warned"). The Niphal conveys passive or reflexive nuance from the active root "to shine."
Rendering RationaleThe Niphal stem expresses a passive or reflexive sense of the root ז־ה־ר, "to shine" or "to enlighten." In this form (3rd person masculine singular), it conveys that "he was warned"—that is, he received enlightening caution. This rendering preserves both the passive Niphal force and the masculine singular grammar reflected in the morphology, while also aligning with its participial use as "one being warned" (masculine singular).
