Abstract
The lengthened imperative קָט֔֔֔לָהָ is a salient feature of biblical Hebrew grammar. It is generally understood in one of three ways: as a stylistic variant of the regular imperative קטל, as a more emphatic form of קְ֔ט֗ל and as a polite form of קט֗ל. In this article, I shall investigate the use of the lengthened imperative in biblical Hebrew to examine which, if any, of these interpretations is correct.
