SIBI-P1 H6275-01

they transferred

Rootעתק (ʿ-ṭ-q)
Core Meaningsto move, transfer, remove, shift, grow old, transcribe
Semantic Rangeto cause to move, transfer, remove, relocate, transcribe, copy out, shift away, or metaphorically to advance in age
Conceptual SignificanceThe root conveys the idea of shifting from one state or place to another—whether physically relocating, transmitting text, or moving into old age—highlighting themes of transition, transmission, and change within the biblical narrative.
Morphological NotesHiphil stem (causative), perfect aspect, 3rd person common plural. No explicit object is attached in this form.
Rendering RationaleThe verb is Hiphil perfect 3rd common plural, indicating a completed causative action performed by "they." The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense to the root idea of moving or shifting, so "they transferred" preserves both the causative force and the plural subject inherent in the morphology.
