and they saw

Rootראה (r-ʾ-h)
Core Meaningsseeing, perceiving, observing, experiencing, discerning
Semantic Rangeto see visually, to perceive or discern, to observe, to experience, to consider, to understand, to encounter, to appear
Conceptual Significanceראֹה expresses both physical sight and inward perception in biblical thought. Seeing often signifies recognition, understanding, or experiential knowledge, and it frequently marks moments of revelation, realization, or divine manifestation in the narrative.
Morphological NotesVerb; Qal stem; wayyiqtol (waw-consecutive imperfect) 3rd person masculine plural; active voice; sequential past narrative form.
Rendering RationaleThe form is Qal wayyiqtol 3rd masculine plural, denoting a simple past narrative action performed by a masculine plural subject: "and they saw." The rendering preserves the root sense of direct perception while reflecting the plural subject and sequential narrative force of the waw-consecutive.
