and he dispatched
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, sequential imperfect (vav-consecutive), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal stem preserves the basic action of sending or dispatching. The sequential imperfect (vav-consecutive) with 3ms is rendered as a simple past narrative form, and the masculine singular subject is reflected in "he." |
