SIBI-P1 H7666-03
to deal in grain
| Morphological Notes | Qal infinitive construct of שָׁבַר with prefixed preposition ל ("to"). No gender, number, or person marking; verbal stem is simple active (Qal). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form לִשְׁבֹּר is a Qal infinitive construct with prefixed ל, meaning "to deal in grain" or "to buy grain." While the broader root שבר conveys the idea of breaking, this denominative usage extends to the breaking or distribution of grain for trade; "to deal in grain" preserves both the commercial nuance and the underlying root association. The infinitive construct is accurately reflected by the English infinitive "to deal." |
