SIBI-P1 H8248-17
and she caused to drink
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction waw + Hiphil wayyiqtol (preterite) 3rd feminine singular of שקה; causative stem indicating the subject causes another to drink. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root שקה fundamentally denotes causing someone or something to drink or be watered. In the Hiphil stem it carries a causative sense, and the wayyiqtol 3rd feminine singular form indicates a completed past action by a feminine subject, hence "and she caused to drink." |
