SIBI-P1 Translation H7725-145
and he caused to return
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative), sequential perfect (vav-consecutive), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, so the root idea of "return/turn back" is rendered as "caused to return." The 3rd person masculine singular sequential perfect is reflected by "and he" plus the causative verbal action. |
