SIBI-P1 H7069-36
he will acquire
| Root | קנה (q-n-h) |
| Core Meanings | acquire, obtain, possess, create, establish |
| Semantic Range | to acquire, obtain, buy, purchase, possess, own; in some contexts to create or establish; occasionally to beget or bring forth |
| Conceptual Significance | קנה expresses the movement from lack to possession, whether by purchase, inheritance, or divine creative act. When applied to YHWH, it can denote His role as Creator or Possessor of heaven and earth, emphasizing both authority and covenantal ownership. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular (HVqi3ms). The imperfect denotes incomplete action, often future or habitual. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root קנה (q-n-h) fundamentally conveys acquiring or coming into possession, and by extension creating or establishing. The Qal imperfect 3rd masculine singular form יִקְנֶה is rendered "he will acquire," preserving the simple active sense of the Qal stem and clearly reflecting the masculine singular subject indicated by the morphology. |
