SIBI-P1 H6485-17

they were caused to be mustered

Morphological NotesVerb, Hophal (causative passive), perfect (completed action), 3rd person common plural: "they were caused to be visited/numbered/appointed."
Rendering RationaleThe Hophal stem expresses passive causation, so the action is something done to them: they were caused to undergo oversight or reckoning. "Mustered" preserves the root sense of פקד as numbering or reviewing under authority, while "were caused to be" reflects the Hophal perfect 3rd common plural form.
