ceasing one

Morphological NotesVerb, Aramaic Peal (simple active), active participle, feminine singular absolute.
Rendering RationaleThe Peal active participle denotes one who is ceasing or in a state of stopping. Rendering it as "ceasing one" preserves the active participial force and reflects the feminine singular form without converting it into a finite verb.
