SIBI-P1 H1350-41
and he shall be kinsman-redeemed
| Morphological Notes | Verb from גאל in the Niphal stem, perfect 3rd masculine singular, prefixed with conjunction וְ ("and"). Niphal conveys passive/reflexive sense: "to be redeemed" or "to be reclaimed by a kinsman." |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem (נִגְאָֽל) expresses the passive sense "to be redeemed," while the 3rd person masculine singular form requires "he." Rendering it as "kinsman-redeemed" preserves the root’s specific covenantal and familial nuance of redemption carried out by a near relative, rather than a general idea of deliverance. |
