and he walked about
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hithpael stem (reflexive/intensive), sequential imperfect (waw-consecutive), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The root הלך conveys movement or going. In the Hithpael stem it takes a reflexive or iterative sense, indicating that he moved himself about or went back and forth; the sequential imperfect 3ms form is rendered as "and he walked about." |
