SIBI-P1 H1931-15

and he himself

Morphological NotesConjunction וְ (waw) prefixed to independent personal pronoun הוּא; third person masculine singular (Pp3ms). Used independently for emphasis, contrast, or as a nominal clause subject; sometimes functions as a copular substitute.
Rendering RationaleThe form consists of the conjunction וְ (“and”) attached to the independent third person masculine singular pronoun הוּא. Rendering it as “and he himself” preserves the masculine singular person and reflects the pronoun’s frequent emphatic or self-identifying force in Hebrew discourse.
