Psalm 44/Notes/Verbal.V. 4.603031

From Psalms: Layer by Layer

  • רְצִיתָֽם ("you were pleased"): As part of an explanatory כּי-clause, the qatal is not temporally sequential, but rather a perfect of result (i.e., "you had been pleased with them [in the past]" >> "you are [now] pleased with them"). Thus, no reference point movement is expected.
