Most people know that the Biblical meaning of a word is determined
by its underlying three-letter root. The Biblical root can be conjugated
in different a) persons, b) tenses, c) pluralities, d) genders, e) constructions
and f) modalities. For example I watched has a different conjugation then
I will be watched even though both phrases use the same 3 letter
Hebrew root.
Rashi explains that the Hebrew root
Resh-Aleph-Hey can mean both
see and prophetically see.
However the causative-passive (Hafal)
always means that we received (passive)
from God (causative) a prophecy.
The following verses illustrate this:
Dt04-35a
You have received prophecy, that you might know that the Lord is God; there is no other beside him
;
Ex25-40
And see that you make them after their pattern,
which was prophetically shown to you in the mount.
