who is descending

Morphological NotesRelative particle שֶׁ prefixed to a Qal participle, masculine singular absolute (Vqrmsa). The participle conveys continuous or characteristic action: "one who descends."
Rendering RationaleThe form שֶׁיֹּרֵד consists of the relative particle שֶׁ ('who/that') plus a Qal masculine singular participle of יָרַד. Rendering it as "who is descending" preserves the active, ongoing sense of the participle and reflects its masculine singular form, while maintaining the core idea of downward movement inherent in the root.
