SIBI-P1 H7125-08

to the encounter of him

Rootקרא (q-r-ʾ)
Core Meaningscall, proclaim, summon, encounter, meet
Semantic Rangeto meet, toward meeting, to encounter, against, in the direction of, in confrontation with
Conceptual SignificanceDerived from the root meaning "to call," this term often frames encounters as purposeful or summoned events—whether between individuals, nations, or between humanity and YHWH—highlighting the intentional and relational nature of biblical meetings.
Morphological NotesPreposition ל + Qal verbal noun (construct) קְרָאת from קרא + 3ms pronominal suffix וֹ ("him"). Functions adverbially to express direction or purpose toward a meeting.
Rendering RationaleThe form לִקְרָאתוֹ consists of the preposition ל ("to/toward"), the construct form of קְרָאת ("encounter, meeting" from the root קרא), and a 3rd masculine singular suffix ("him"). "To the encounter of him" preserves the root sense of an intentional meeting or summons while accurately reflecting the masculine singular pronominal suffix.
