SIBI-P1 Translation H5414-47
he gave him
| Morphological Notes | Qal perfect, 3rd person masculine singular with 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix (direct object). |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 3ms form expresses a completed act of giving or placing by a masculine singular subject. The 3ms pronominal suffix "-וֹ" adds the direct object "him," preserving both the root sense of transfer and the morphology. |
