SIBI-P1 Translation H935-214
and he brought him in
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil (causative), sequential imperfect (wayyiqtol), 3rd person masculine singular subject + 3rd person masculine singular pronominal suffix ("him"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem conveys causative action from the root בוא, meaning "to come/enter," thus "to cause to come" or "bring in." The sequential imperfect (3ms) with 3ms suffix yields "and he brought him in," preserving both causation and the masculine singular object. |

SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
and he brought him
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1's 'and he brought him in' adds 'in', but the Hebrew verb with its direct object does not specify 'in' here; 'and he brought him' matches the context strictly. |
