Reflexive voice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reflexive voice means that the subject of the verb is *both* performing
*and* receiving the verbal action. In English, reflexive voice is expressed
using a reflexive pronoun as the object of the verb, "I tell *myself*".
In Biblical Hebrew, the reflexive nature of the verbal action is
expressed by the stem formation of the verb itself without any additional
words.

Middle voice
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Middle voice means that the subject receives the verbal action but also is
(partially) involved in performing the verbal action. Middle voice
stands somewhere between passive voice and reflexive voice.

Reciprocal voice
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reciprocal voice means that multiple subjects are in view who are both
performing the verbal action for another and receiving the verbal action from another.
In English, reciprocal voice is expressed using the phrase "each other"
as the object of the verb, "They tell each other." Reciprocal voice must be distinguished from reflexive voice. The phrase
"They tell themselves" is reflexive: the subject "they" is a unified
group and the action could be expressed reflexively for each individual
as "he tells himself, and he tells himself, and she tells herself, etc."
The phrase "They tell each other" is reciprocal: each member of the
group is telling something to another member of the group, and each
member of the group is being told something by another member of the
group.

Rare stem formations

Most of these stems occur only a few times in the Hebrew Bible. Their
function is usually similar to one of the above stems, or a combination
of two of them. One simple rule that can help with a first guess as to
its function is this: If it sounds similar to one of the seven common
stems, it probably means something similar as well.
The uncommon stems are:
