and he rose up
| Root | קום (q-w-m) |
| Core Meanings | rising, standing, establishing, enduring, becoming firm |
| Semantic Range | to rise, stand up, arise to act, establish, endure, come into being, confirm, accomplish |
| Conceptual Significance | קום is a key biblical verb expressing movement from inactivity to action, from lying to standing, and metaphorically from weakness to strength or from obscurity to establishment. It often marks decisive initiative, divine intervention, or the fulfillment and establishment of a matter. |
| Morphological Notes | HC/Vqq3ms: waw-consecutive + Qal perfect, 3rd person masculine singular; narrative past form from the root קום. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a waw-consecutive Qal perfect 3rd person masculine singular, indicating a completed past action in narrative sequence: "and he rose." The rendering "and he rose up" preserves both the masculine singular subject and the root sense of rising or standing into action inherent in קום. |
