and he planted

Rootנטע (n-ṭ-ʿ)
Core Meaningsto plant, to fix in, to set firmly, to establish
Semantic Rangeto plant vegetation; to fix or fasten in place; to establish (a people, city, or covenantal presence); to implant figuratively (ideas, righteousness).
Conceptual SignificanceOften used both agriculturally and metaphorically, נטע expresses YHWH’s role in establishing His people in the land, portraying Israel as something deliberately set and rooted by divine action, emphasizing stability, purpose, and covenantal placement.
Morphological NotesVerb from נטע in Qal stem; wayyiqtol (waw-consecutive imperfect) 3rd masculine singular, denoting sequential past narrative action: "and he planted."
Rendering RationaleThe verb is Qal wayyiqtol 3rd masculine singular, indicating a completed past narrative action performed by "he." "Planted" preserves the root sense of fixing or setting something firmly into place, while "and" reflects the consecutive waw that advances the storyline.
