and a gatherer

Rootקבץ (q-b-ts)
Core Meaningsgrasping, collecting, assembling, gathering together, heaping
Semantic Rangeto gather people (for assembly or exile), to collect objects, to assemble armies, to heap up, to bring together what is scattered
Conceptual SignificanceThe root often describes YHWH’s action of gathering scattered Israel, conveying themes of restoration, regathering from exile, and covenant faithfulness. As a participial form, it can characterize an individual or agent defined by the act of gathering, reflecting purposeful assembly or restoration.
Morphological NotesConjunction וְ prefixed to Qal active participle masculine singular absolute of קָבַץ. The participle functions substantivally, denoting "one who gathers."
Rendering RationaleThe form is a Qal active participle masculine singular with a prefixed conjunction וְ (“and”). "Gatherer" reflects the active, ongoing sense of the Qal participle—"one who gathers"—while preserving the singular masculine form; the conjunction is retained as "and."
