they drove in

Morphological NotesVerb, Qal stem, perfect (suffix conjugation), 3rd person common plural. Simple active action completed in past context; no gender distinction in the plural form.
Rendering RationaleThe Qal perfect 3rd common plural form denotes a completed action performed by "they." Rendering it as "they drove in" preserves the root sense of forcefully thrusting or striking something into place, which underlies related meanings such as fastening, clapping, or sounding an instrument.
