SIBI-P1 H6381-28
it will be extraordinary
| Root | פלא (p-l-ʾ) |
| Core Meanings | to be set apart, to be distinguished, to be extraordinary, to be beyond, to be wondrous |
| Semantic Range | to be extraordinary, to be beyond understanding, to be too difficult, to be marvelous, to be surpassing, to be set apart as wondrous |
| Conceptual Significance | This root frequently describes acts of YHWH that are beyond human capacity or comprehension—deeds set apart from the ordinary course of events. It emphasizes the distinction between the divine and the mundane, marking moments where God’s power or purpose surpasses natural expectation. |
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Niphal stem, imperfect (yiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular. The Niphal expresses a passive/reflexive state: "to be shown extraordinary" or "to prove beyond." |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem conveys a passive or stative sense, expressing a state of being set apart or distinguished. The imperfect 3rd masculine singular form is reflected by "it will be," preserving singular masculine agreement while conveying the root idea of something being set apart as extraordinary or beyond the ordinary. |
