Ibn Ezra on Leviticus 16:10/אבן עזרא על ויקרא ט״ז:י׳

איעמד חי. מהבנין הכבד הנוסף שלא נזכר שם פועלו והיה היו״ד ראוי להיותו מאוסף בשור״ק רק נרחב בעבור אות הגרון וכן יחרם כל רכושו:

1SHALL BE SET ALIVE. The word yo’omad (shall be set) is a hofal.⁵⁶ The yod⁵⁷ should have been vocalized with a shuruk.⁵⁸, for that is the way words in the imperfect are conjugated in the hofal. Compare, yuktzar, yurad However, it was enlarged⁵⁹) to a major vowel (a kamatz). because of the guttural.⁶⁰, for the root of yo’omad is ayin, mem, dalet. The word yochoram (should be forfeited) in all his substance should be forfeited (Ez. 10:8) is similar.⁶¹ rather than with a kubbutz because of its guttural.

בלכפר עליו. כי הכפור יהי עליו ופירושו לשלח אותו:

2TO MAKE ATONEMENT OVER HIM.⁶² For the atonement shall be upon it.⁶³ It means to send him away.
