SIBI-P1 H1350-05
he has acted as kinsman-redeemer
| Morphological Notes | Qal stem, perfect (suffix conjugation), 3rd person masculine singular; active voice indicating a completed action performed by a male subject. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Qal perfect 3rd masculine singular form denotes a completed action performed by "he." Rendering it as "he has acted as kinsman-redeemer" preserves the root sense of גאל, which refers specifically to fulfilling the legal and familial duty of a near kinsman to redeem, reclaim, or avenge, rather than a generic act of redemption. |
