Genesis 5:5

וַ יִּהְיוּ כָּל יְמֵי אָדָם אֲשֶׁר חַי תְּשַׁע מֵאֹות שָׁנָה וּ שְׁלֹשִׁים שָׁנָה וַ יָּמֹת
And they are becoming the whole of the days of Red-one who is Living,209 nine hundred of a duplication and thirty of a duplication, and he is dying.210
209

And they are becoming the whole of the days of the red-one who is Living. Some perhaps have thought the word חַי (alive, life, living) as used here was a rare verb form in the complete, i.e. lived. But it is a noun/adjective and the presence of the incomplete verb to be in the plural at the beginning of the sentence shows a revelation. Their days have not been but are. Sons of Hot-one (1 Thes. 5:5). Though he die, he is yet Living. John 11:25.
