SIBI-P1 Translation H3212-80

and he caused to go

Morphological NotesVerb; Hiphil (causative); sequential imperfect (waw-consecutive); 3rd person masculine singular.
Rendering RationaleThe Hiphil stem makes the verb causative, shifting from simple movement ('to go') to causing another to go. The sequential imperfect with prefixed waw gives the narrative past sense 'and he caused to go.'
