his being caused to see
| Root | ראה (r-ʾ-h) |
| Core Meanings | seeing, perceiving, appearing, experiencing, discerning |
| Semantic Range | to be shown, to be made to see, to experience, to be given a vision, to be caused to perceive or understand |
| Conceptual Significance | Seeing in Hebrew thought often implies not only physical sight but experiential knowledge and divine revelation. In causative form, it frequently relates to YHWH revealing truth, granting vision, or enabling understanding—highlighting the belief that true perception comes from divine initiative. |
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil infinitive construct of ראה with 3ms pronominal suffix ("his"). The Hiphil stem conveys causative action; the infinitive construct functions verbally with possessive suffix indicating the subject of the verbal action. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root ראה centers on seeing or perceiving. In the Hiphil stem it carries a causative sense, "to cause to see" or "to show." As an infinitive construct with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix, the form denotes "his being caused to see," preserving both the causative stem and the masculine singular possessive suffix. |
