SIBI-P1 H3680-13
he covered over
| Morphological Notes | Verb from root כסה in the Qal stem; perfect (suffix) conjugation, 3rd person masculine singular (HVpp3ms). Indicates a completed action by a male or masculine subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root כסה carries the core idea of covering or concealing, whether physically (clothing, sheltering) or metaphorically (hiding, overwhelming). The form is Qal perfect 3rd masculine singular, so the rendering "he covered over" reflects a completed action performed by a masculine singular subject while preserving the root’s central sense of covering. |
