he drove

Morphological NotesVerb, Piel stem (intensive/active), perfect (completed action), 3rd person masculine singular.
Rendering RationaleThe root נהג conveys the act of driving or leading something forward with direction. The Piel perfect 3ms form expresses an intensive or active causative sense in completed action, thus "he drove" captures both the directed force and the masculine singular subject.
