SIBI-P1 H7760-67
and he placed
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction waw + Qal wayyiqtol (vav-consecutive imperfect) 3rd masculine singular from שׂוּם. Narrative past tense form commonly used in sequential storytelling. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Qal wayyiqtol 3rd masculine singular, indicating a completed past narrative action by a male subject: “and he placed.” The rendering preserves the root sense of deliberately putting or setting something in position, while reflecting the masculine singular subject and sequential narrative force of the waw-consecutive. |
