 Ex. 1:5, Jud. 8:30. Similarly other kinds of acc., as that of direction, Is. 38:18 יֹֽרְדֵי־בוֹר    gone down to the pit, 1 Chr. 12:33, 36, or of respect, Is. 1:30 fading in its leaf. In poetry this brief forcible consn. of gen. represents prose consn. with prep.; Ps. 88:6 lying in the grave, though cf. 57:5; Mic. 2:8, Is. 22:2. Particularly with suff., Ps. 18:40 קָמַי    those rising up against me, cf. Ps. 3:2. Deu. 33:11, Is. 22:3, Ps. 53:6; 73:27; 74:23; 102:9, Pr. 2:19. Is. 29:7 who war against her and her stronghold is so condensed as to be suspicious.

The pass. ptcp. also may retain the acc. of act. verb, as 1 S. 2:18 חָגוּר אֵפוֹד    girt with an ephod, Jud. 18:11, Ez. 9:2, 3, Neh. 4:12; or take the gen., Is. 3:3; 51:21, Joel 1:8, Ez. 9:11. Particularly when the gen. explains the extent of application of ptcp. (§ 24 d). Is. 3:3. נְשׂוּא פָנִים    he whose face is lifted up. Ps. 32:1 כְּסוּי חֲטָאָה    he whose sin is covered. 2 S. 13:31, Is. 33:24, Pr. 14:2. In 2 S. 15:32 כּ׳ קָרוּעַ כֻּתָּנְתּוֹ    is not acc. of respect, as to his garment, but subj. to rent, though rent at the same time is acc. of condition to Hushai. On the other hand Jud. 1:7 is rather an ordinary circ. cl., cut off being pred. to thumbs, although elsewhere this word is fem. Ex. 12:11, Jer. 30:6.

§ 99. The ptcp. becomes virtually a noun, as Is. 19:20 מוֹשִׁיעַ    one who saves, a saviour, and may be subj. or obj. of a sentence. When in apposition with a noun it is used as an adj., Deu. 4:24 אֵשׁ אֹֽכְלָה    a devouring fire, 4:34 an outstretched arm, Gen. 22:13, Is. 18:2, 5, Jud. 1:24 וֽיִּרְאוּ אִישׁ יוֹצֵא    they saw a man coming out. Am. 5:3, Is. 2:13; 10:22. With the art. the ptcp. may like the adj. designate a class. Am. 5:13, Is. 14:8; 28:16, Mic. 4:6; or have the sense of he who …, whoever, Gen. 26:11 הַנֹּגֵעַ בָּאִישׁ הַזֶּה    whoever touches, 2 S. 14:10; and so with gen., Gen. 9:6, Ex. 21:12, 15, 16.

When in appos. with a preceding def. subj. the ptcp. with art. has the meaning very much of a relative clause. Gen. 12:7 י׳ הַנִּרְאֶה אֵלָיו    Je. who had appeared to him; 1 S.
