| Parsing Drill |
This 32-item parsing drill covers Qal active and passive participle forms across all major root classes in four parts. Part A presents strong-root active participles in all four inflected forms (ms, fs, mp, construct). Part B covers weak-root active participles (III-ה, Biconsonantal, I-י, I-נ, I-aleph). Part C introduces the passive participle (qatûl pattern) in all attested forms. Part D requires discrimination among active participle, passive participle, Perfect, Imperfect, IC, and IA — using vowel patterns (holem-waw/tsere vs. qamets/shureq) and context clues. |
| Passage Exercise |
This passage exercise presents 15 highlighted participle forms drawn from eleven OT passages spanning Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. Passages were selected to illustrate the full range of participle functions: predicate passive participles in the blessing and curse formulas (Gen 3:14, 4:11, 14:19, 24:27), predicate and circumstantial active participles (Gen 18:1, Exo 3:2, Num 14:14), the substantive participle used as a title (Gen 4:9, Lev 25:25), occupational/progressive active participles (Gen 37:2, Num 27:17), and attributive passive participles (Exo 6:6, Deu 9:10, Lev 2:4–5). Students identify active/passive, root, root class, gender/number, syntactic function, and gloss for each highlighted form. |
