SIBI-P1 H5975-55
and we caused to stand
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וַ + Hiphil wayyiqtol (preterite) verb, 1st common plural, from עמד. The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense: "to cause to stand, to set, to establish." |
| Rendering Rationale | The root עמד carries the core idea of standing or remaining firm. In the Hiphil stem it takes a causative sense, meaning "to cause to stand" or "to set in place." The form is wayyiqtol, first common plural, thus "and we caused to stand," preserving both the causative force and the plural subject. |
