Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(43) The virgin.--Not the word used in Genesis 24:16, nor that rendered damsel there and in Genesis 24:14, but almah, a young woman just ripening for marriage. It is applied to Miriam in Exodus 2:8, where it is rendered maid, and to the mother of the Immanuel in Isaiah 7:14.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewHereהִנֵּ֛ה (hin·nêh)InterjectionStrong's 2009: Lo! behold!I am,אָנֹכִ֥י (’ā·nō·ḵî)Pronoun - first person common singularStrong's 595: Istandingנִצָּ֖ב (niṣ·ṣāḇ)Verb - Nifal - Participle - masculine singularStrong's 5324: To take one's stand, standbesideעַל־ (‘al-)PrepositionStrong's 5921: Above, over, upon, againstthis spring.עֵ֣ין (‘ên)Noun - common singular constructStrong's 5869: An eye, a fountainNow [if]וְהָיָ֤ה (wə·hā·yāh)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 1961: To fall out, come to pass, become, bea maidenהָֽעַלְמָה֙ (hā·‘al·māh)Article | Noun - feminine singularStrong's 5959: A young woman, a virgincomes outהַיֹּצֵ֣את (hay·yō·ṣêṯ)Article | Verb - Qal - Participle - feminine singularStrong's 3318: To go, bring, out, direct and proximto draw waterלִשְׁאֹ֔ב (liš·’ōḇ)Preposition-l | Verb - Qal - Infinitive constructStrong's 7579: To bale up waterand I sayוְאָמַרְתִּ֣י (wə·’ā·mar·tî)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Conjunctive perfect - first person common singularStrong's 559: To utter, sayto her,אֵלֶ֔יהָ (’ê·le·hā)Preposition | third person feminine singularStrong's 413: Near, with, among, to“Pleaseנָ֥א (nā)InterjectionStrong's 4994: I pray', 'now', 'then'let me drinkהַשְׁקִֽינִי־ (haš·qî·nî-)Verb - Hifil - Imperative - feminine singular | first person common singularStrong's 8248: To quaff, to irrigate, furnish a, potion toa littleמְעַט־ (mə·‘aṭ-)Adjective - masculine singular constructStrong's 4592: A little, fewness, a fewwaterמַ֖יִם (ma·yim)Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 4325: Water, juice, urine, semenfrom your jar,”מִכַּדֵּֽךְ׃ (mik·kad·dêḵ)Preposition-m | Noun - feminine singular construct | second person feminine singularStrong's 3537: A pail, earthenware, a jarJump to PreviousDraw Drink Forth Fountain Jar Little Maiden Pitcher Spring Stand Standing Vessel Virgin Waiting Water Young
