causing to rest
| Morphological Notes | Hiphil active participle, masculine singular, absolute; causative verbal adjective. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, and the masculine singular active participle denotes an ongoing agentive action. "Causing to rest" preserves the root idea of rest/settling while reflecting the causative morphology. |
