Dear list-members,

I am working with Jeremiah, a book also abounding with "strange" verbs. A
quick question: In Jeremiah 6:1-6 there are 6 QATALs together with 2
YIQTOLs and 3 WEYIQTOLs. Are the QATALs indicatives with future meaning
(i.e. RT comes after C) or does anybody have a better suggestion?

Regards
Rolf
