SIBI-P1 `H4886-02`

he was anointed (smeared with oil)

Root	משח (m-š-ḥ)
Core Meanings	to smear, to rub with oil, to anoint, to consecrate
Semantic Range	to be anointed with oil, to be consecrated for office, to be ritually set apart, to be ceremonially applied with oil or pigment
Conceptual Significance	Anointing signifies divine selection and consecration for sacred roles such as king, priest, or prophet. It marks a transition into divinely appointed service and is foundational to the concept of the "Anointed One" (Messiah).
Morphological Notes	Nifal stem (passive/reflexive), perfect (completed action), 3rd person masculine singular. The Nifal marks the subject as receiving the action of anointing.
Rendering Rationale	The root משח denotes the act of smearing or rubbing with oil, especially in consecratory contexts. The Nifal stem conveys a passive sense, and the morphology indicates masculine singular perfect, thus "he was anointed," preserving both the passive action and masculine singular form.
