SIBI-P1 H1802-05

he draws her up

Rootדלה (d-l-h)
Core Meaningsdangling, drawing up, lifting out, drawing out (especially water), delivering
Semantic Rangeto draw up water, to lift out, to pull up, to rescue or deliver, to bring up from a lowered state
Conceptual SignificanceThe verb evokes the concrete imagery of drawing water from a well—an essential act of sustenance in the ancient Near East—and by extension can signify deliverance or rescue, portraying salvation as being lifted up from depth or danger.
Morphological NotesQal imperfect (yiqtol) 3rd masculine singular with 3rd feminine singular pronominal suffix; simple active stem with a feminine singular direct object (“her”).
Rendering RationaleThe root דלה conveys the act of letting down and drawing up, especially of water from a well. The Qal imperfect 3ms with a 3fs suffix indicates “he” as the subject performing the simple action, with “her” as the feminine singular object; thus “he draws her up” preserves both the core image of lifting/drawing and the grammatical features of the form.
