SIBI-P1 Translation H7236-01
he made great
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Pael (intensive/causative), perfect, 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Pael stem in Aramaic conveys an intensive or causative force, so the perfect 3ms form expresses that he caused something or someone to become great or prominent. "He made great" preserves both the causative nuance and the root idea of enlargement or exaltation. |
