one who raises high
| Morphological Notes | Verb, Hiphil stem (causative), active participle, masculine singular, absolute state. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Hiphil stem gives a causative sense, "to cause to be high" or "to exalt." As a masculine singular active participle, it denotes "one who causes to rise" or "one who raises high," preserving both the root idea of elevation and the participial form. |
