then
A demonstrative adverb primarily indicating a specific point in time, usually past, meaning 'then' or 'at that time.' אָז functions to situate actions or events temporally in relation to a previously mentioned or implied context. In some constructions, it serves a logical or inferential function ('thus', 'thereupon'). Rarely, it may introduce a consequence or development, especially in poetic texts or parallelism.

then
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | 'Then' is the most contextually natural way to render אָז here. While P1 'at that time' is possible, 'then' is the common, direct rendering and fits the temporal and inferential function in the sentence. |
