Exegesis
The sequence of perfect verbs with vav-consecutive—ʾāmar {אָמַר | ʾā-mar} ‘has spoken’ and we-dibbēr {וְדִבֵּר | wə-dib-bēr} ‘has declared’—followed by imperfect clauses yaʿăśeh {יַעֲשֶה | ya-ʿă-śeh} ‘will do’ and yiqqimennāh {יִקִּימֶנָּה | yiq-qim-en-nāh} ‘will establish it’, reinforces the inseparability of divine word and action.
Root and etymology
ʿ–š–hayin–shin–he
“to do, make”
In context — Numbers 23:19
God is not a human that He should speak falsely , nor a son of man that He should relent. Has He spoken, and will He not do it? Or has He declared it, and will He not bring it to pass?
