Exegesis
The resumptive pronoun vehu {וְהוּא | ve-hu} ‘and he’ resumes the subject before the verb natan {נָתַן | na-tan} ‘gave’, which takes peret {פֶּרֶת | pe-ret} ‘provision’ and hamelekh {הַמֶּלֶךְ | ha-me-lekh} ‘the king’ as its direct object.
The conjunction ki {כִּי | ki} ‘for’ introduces a causal verbless clause in which ish gadol hu me’od {אִישׁ גָּדוֹל הוּא מְאֹד | ish ga-dol hu me-'od} ‘he was a very great man’ employs ish {אִישׁ | ish} ‘man’ as a predicate nominal.
