SIBI-P1 Translation H7200-68
was seen
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Niphal stem (passive/reflexive), perfect (qatal), 3rd person masculine singular. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Niphal stem gives a passive/reflexive sense of the root "to see," and the perfect 3rd masculine singular form denotes completed action. "Was seen" preserves the passive force and keeps the rendering anchored to the core idea of sight. |

SILEX v2
SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
will appear
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | The verb form (Niphal imperfect) indicates future passive: 'will appear.' P1 'was seen' is past, which does not fit. Context requires a future action ('will appear'), so this corrects the tense. |
