SIBI-P1 H5375-91
and he lifted up
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, wayyiqtol (vav-consecutive imperfect), 3rd person masculine singular. The prefixed וַ marks sequential past narrative action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal wayyiqtol 3rd masculine singular form denotes a completed past action by a masculine singular subject, hence "and he." The rendering "lifted up" preserves the core root sense of elevating or bearing, from which many figurative uses (e.g., bearing guilt, raising the eyes) develop. |
