SIBI-P1 H7121-61
and I called out
| Root | קרא (q-r-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | call, cry out, summon, proclaim, name, announce, read aloud |
| Semantic Range | to call out loudly, summon someone, invoke a name, proclaim publicly, read aloud, assign a name, announce, invite |
| Conceptual Significance | קרא is central in biblical theology for invoking the Name of YHWH, prophetic proclamation, and the public reading of Torah. It conveys relational address—whether human to human, human to God, or God calling His people—highlighting covenantal communication and revelation. |
| Morphological Notes | Qal stem; wayyiqtol (waw-consecutive imperfect) 1st person common singular. Narrative past tense with prefixed waw converting the imperfect to sequential past: "and I…". |
| Rendering Rationale | The root קרא centers on vocal address—calling, summoning, or proclaiming aloud. The form is Qal wayyiqtol, first person common singular, indicating simple active voice in past narrative sequence, hence "and I called out," preserving both the vocal sense of the root and the 1cs morphology. |
