Participle Passive
==================
Summary
-------
A passive participle is a non-finite verbal form with passive or reflexive voice that can function
as a verb (or verbal complement), an adjective, or a noun. In Biblical Aramaic, passive participles most often function
as either an :ref:`attributive<adjective-attributive>` adjective or a :ref:`predicative<adjective-predicative>` adjective.

Passive participles express verbal action in either :ref:`passive voice<stem-voice-passive>` or
:ref:`reflexive voice<stem-voice-reflexive>`. Passive voice means that the person/thing described by the
participle receives the action expressed by the participle itself. Reflexive voice means that the person/thing described by
the participle both performs and receives the action expressed by the participle itself.
.. note:: Only the :ref:`Qal<stem_qal>` stem
has a distinct passive form for the participle; in all other cases, the
passive (or sometimes reflexive) meaning is determined by the :ref:`stem formation<stem>`
and the specific verb.

Function
--------
A passive/reflexive participle is often used as an independent
grammatical entity, although it can introduce entire clauses similar to the :ref:`active<participle_active>` participle.
Passive participles are generally more limited in meaning than active participles.
Passive participles are governed either by the main verb of a sentence or by the
context; thus, they can express action in past time, present time,
future time, or without any specified timeframe.
.. _participle_passive-adjectival:
Functions as an :ref:`adjective<adjective>`
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is the most common use of the passive participle in Biblical Aramaic.
An adjectival passive participle can function as either an :ref:`attributive<adjective-attributive>` adjective
or a :ref:`predicative<adjective-predicative>` adjective. The context must determine whether a passive participle
is functioning as a predicative adjective or as a main verb, because both appear the
same in many instances (compare EXO 5:16 and 1SA 19:11).
The following example shows a passive participle functioning as an attributive adjective.
.. csv-table:: Example: PSA 149:9
לַעֲשׂ֤וֹת בָּהֶ֨ם׀ מִשְׁפָּ֬ט כָּת֗וּב
la'asoth bahem mishpat **kathuv**
to-do to-them judgment **written**
They will execute the judgment **that is written**
The following example shows a passive participle functioning as a predicative adjective.
.. csv-table:: Example: EXO 5:16
וְהִנֵּ֧ה עֲבָדֶ֛יךָ מֻכִּ֖ים
wehinneh 'avadeykha **mukkim**
and-behold your-servants **beaten**
"We, your servants, are even **beaten** now"
The following example shows passive participles introducing an entire clause that functions as a predicative adjective.
.. csv-table:: Example: PSA 22:7
וְאָנֹכִ֣י תוֹלַ֣עַת וְלֹא־אִ֑ישׁ **חֶרְפַּ֥ת** אָ֝דָ֗ם **וּבְז֥וּי** עָֽם׃
we'anokhi thola'ath welo-'ish **herpath** 'adam **uvezuy** 'am
"and-I worm and-not\_man **scorned-of** humanity **and-despised-of**
people"
"But I am a worm and not a man, a **disgrace** to humanity
**and despised** by the people."
.. _participle_passive-verbal:
.. _participle_passive-verbal-MV:
Functions as a :ref:`finite<verb-finite>` main verb
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The context must determine whether a passive participle is functioning as a main verb or as a predicative adjective,
because both appear the same in many instances (compare 1SA 19:11 and EXO 5:16). In the following example, the participle
is in the first position, which is the normal :ref:`word order<word_order>` for finite verbs but not for participles.
.. csv-table:: Example: ISA 17:2
עֲזֻב֖וֹת עָרֵ֣י עֲרֹעֵ֑ר
**'azuvoth** 'are 'aro'er
**being-forsaken** cities-of Aroer
The cities of Aroer **will be abandoned**
.. csv-table:: Example: 1SA 19:11
מָחָ֖ר אַתָּ֥ה מוּמָֽת
mahar 'attah **mumath**
tomorrow you **being-made-dead**
tomorrow you **will be killed**
.. _participle_passive-verbal-VC:
Functions as a :ref:`non-finite<verb-non-finite>` verbal complement
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. note:: The subject of a verbal participle usually
precedes the participle, in contrast to the normal conventions of Aramaic
:ref:`word order<word_order>`.
.. csv-table:: Example: GEN 38:25
הִ֣וא **מוּצֵ֗את** וְהִ֨יא שָׁלְחָ֤ה אֶל־חָמִ֙יהָ֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר
hiw **mutseth** wehi sholhah 'el-hamiha lemor
she **being-brought-out** and-she sent to\_her-father-in-law saying
"When she **was brought out**, she sent to her father-in-law a message"
.. _participle_passive-nominal:
Functions as a :ref:`noun<noun>`
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. csv-table:: Example: JOS 8:34
כְּכָל־\ **הַכָּת֖וּב** בְּסֵ֥פֶר הַתּוֹרָֽה׃
kekhol-\ **hakkathuv** besefer hattowrah
like-all\_\ **the-written** in-book-of the-law
just as **had been written** in the book of the law
