Exegesis
The coordinating waw upishra {וּפִשְׁרָ֥ה | û-piš-rā(h)} ‘and interpretation’ introduces the result clause, while nehachaveh {נְהַחֲוֵֽה | nə-hă-ḥă-wê(h)} ‘we will show’ in the causative expresses the promise of revelation. The Aramaic jussive and causative stems undergird the English imperatives and assurances.
