SIBI-P1 H3680-25
one who covers over
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Qal stem, active participle, masculine singular absolute (מְכַסֶּה). The participle conveys continuous or characteristic action: "covering" or "one who covers." |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a Qal active participle masculine singular absolute, indicating an ongoing or characteristic action performed by a single male subject. "One who covers over" preserves the root sense of כסה (to cover, conceal, envelop) while reflecting the masculine singular participial form as an active agent. |
