and she descended

Morphological NotesConjunction וַ (vav consecutive) + Qal wayyiqtol 3rd feminine singular of ירד; narrative past tense with feminine singular subject.
Rendering RationaleThe root ירד conveys the act of moving downward or descending. The form is Qal wayyiqtol 3rd feminine singular, indicated by the prefixed וַ־ and תֵּ־ pattern, so the rendering preserves the narrative past sense ('and') and specifies a feminine singular subject with 'she descended.'
