SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
and we have become fruitful
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | Adjusted from 'and we have borne fruit' to 'and we have become fruitful' as the Hebrew verb is intransitive and refers to increase, not just the act of bearing literal fruit; aligns with the narrative sense of thriving or prospering. |
