SIBI-P1 H2986-01
he will be led forth
| Root | יבל (y-b-l) |
| Core Meanings | flowing, bringing, leading, carrying along, conducting |
| Semantic Range | to bring, carry, conduct, lead forth (especially ceremonially), to be led, to flow like a stream; as a noun, a stream or watercourse |
| Conceptual Significance | The root links physical flowing with the act of leading or conducting, often in contexts of procession, tribute, or divine guidance. It evokes imagery of movement under direction—whether of water coursing in a channel or people being led—highlighting themes of guidance, procession, and the channeling of life or destiny. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil stem, 3rd person masculine singular (imperfect form with passive force). The Hiphil stem expresses causative action; in this vocalization (יוּבַל) it carries a passive nuance: "he will be caused to be brought/led." Related nominal forms include masculine singular nouns meaning "stream" or proper names derived from the same root. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root יבל conveys the idea of flowing or causing something to be brought along. In the Hiphil 3rd masculine singular form, the verb expresses causative action applied to a masculine singular subject; the form יוּבַל functions as a passive of the causative, hence "he will be led forth," preserving both the flow/leading sense of the root and the masculine singular morphology. |
