Morphological NotesVerb, Qal stem, perfect conjugation, 3rd person feminine singular.

SILEX v2

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)

had gone down

Same as P1No — adjusted for context
RationaleThe context is referring to the sun's setting; the participle P1 ('she came') is awkward in English and does not fit. 'Had gone down' fits both the Hebrew verbal idea and the temporal context.
