    Exercises for Chapter 25

    1.

    a.  ly[ip]hi  3ms imperfect – root fbn ; “he will look”; the prefix vowel jTæPæ &  characterizes thely[ip]hi  imperfect; the initial root letter  ̂ Wn assimilates to the following root letter (notethe vgeD: in the  tyBe).

     b.  l[æp]nI 3ms perfect – root jdn; “he was thrust out”; the initial  ̂ Wn is characteristic of thel[æp]nI, while the initial root letter  ̂ Wn assimilates to the following root letter (note the vgeD:in the  tl,D; &); this form could also be a l[ePi 3ms perfect or a lqæ 1cp imperfect.

    c.  ly[ip]hi 3fs or 2ms imperfect – root  nyb; “she/you will cause to understand”; this is thetypical form for the ly[ip]hi  of hollow verbs; it could also be lqæ  imperfect (“she/youwill understand”).

    d.  l[ePi 3ms jussive – root ywx; “may he command”; the imperfect form is hW,xæy“,   but thefinal syllable, with the marking of the l[ePi’s doubling, is dropped in the jussive andconverted imperfect.

    e.  ly[ip]hi  3ms converted imperfect – root ykn; “he smote”; hK,y"  is the long form, but thefinal syllable is lost in the converted form; the prefix vowel indicates that the form isly[ip]hi; the initial  ̂ Wn normally assimilates, but in this form, because the final syllable islost, the doubling of the π K; is also lost.

    f.  ly[ip]hi  3ms impf/jussive – root ydy; “he will give thanks”; the verb is historically initialww:, and the initial ww: reappears in the ly[ip]hi as the prefix vowel.

    g.  l[æp]h; 3ms perfect– root bvy; “he was made to sit”; the qr,Wv vowel in the prefix is dueto the original first consonant, ww:. The form could also be a pausal infinitive.

    h.  ly[ip]hi  1cs imperfect – root pwn; “I will raise”; the prefixed πl,a;  characterizes the first perfect imperfect, and the remaining πynI- is characteristic of hollow roots in the ly[ip]hi.This form cannot be lqæ because its root is middle ww:, not middle d/y.

    i.  ly[ip]hi 3mp imperfect – root dw[; “they will testify against”; the form’s W y iy:  pattern ischaracteristic of 3mp imperfect hollow root forms. This form cannot be lqæ because itsroot is middle ww:, not middle d/y.

     j.  l[ePi 3ms perfect – root  nam; “he refused”; the form is parallel to rBeDi, except that theinitial vowel is compensatorily lengthened because the middle radical, a guttural, willnot tolerate a vgeD;.

    k.  l[æp]nI 3fs perfect or fs participle – root rty; “she was/is left over”; the prefix  ̂ Wncharacterizes the l[æp]nI, while the original initial ww: is preserved in the prefix vowel.

    l.  l[æp]nI ms participle or 3ms pausal perfect – root bxn; “he is/was standing”; the initial  ̂ Wnof the root assimilates to the following root letter. The form could also theoretically

     be a l[ePi 3ms pausal perfect

    Exercises for Chapter 25 (page 2 of 15)

    m.  ly[ip]hi or lqæ converted imperfect – root yl[; “he brought up/he went up”; the jTæPæ thatfollows the d/y is either that of the ly[ip]hi’s prefix or, in the lqæ, due to the followingguttural; the converted imperfect takes the short form in final d/y verbs, but even thelong form in this case (hl, [}y") does not help distinguish between binyanim.

    of the younger was Rachel.

    17 Leah had weak eyes; Rachel was shapely and beautiful.18 Jacob loved Rachel; so he answered, “I will serve you seven years for your 

    younger daughter Rachel.”

    19 Laban said, “Better that I give her to you than that I should give her to an

    outsider. Stay with me.”

    20 So Jacob served seven years for Rachel and they seemed to him but a few days

     because of his love for her.21 Then Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my time is fulfilled, that I may

    cohabit with her.”

    22 And Laban gathered all the people of the place and made a feast.23 When evening came, he took his daughter Leah and brought her to him; and hecohabited with her.— 

    24 Laban had given his maidservant Zilpah to his daughter Leah as her maid.— 25 When morning came, there was Leah! So he said to Laban, “What is this you h

    ave done to me? I was in your service for Rachel! Why did you deceive me?”

    holocaust to the LORD your God. And it shall remain an everlasting ruin, never to be

    18 Let nothing that has been doomed stick to your hand, in order that the LORD may

    turn from His blazing anger and show you compassion, and in His compassionincrease you as He promised your fathers on oath —

    he feared God and shunned evil.

    2 Seven sons and three daughters were born to him;

    3 his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred

    yoke of oxen and five hundred she-asses, and a very large household. That man was

    wealthier than anyone in the East.

    4 It was the custom of his sons to hold feasts, each on his set day in his own home.They would invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

    5 When a round of feast days was over, Job would send word to them to sanctify

    themselves, and, rising early in the morning, he would make burnt offerings, one for 

    each of them; for Job thought, “Perhaps my children have sinned and blasphemed

    God in their thoughts.” This is what Job always used to do.hyh: lqæ 3ms perfect – root yyhhyhw: lqæ 3ms converted perfect – root yyhrsw: lqæ ms participle + ww: – root rws
