Ibn Ezra on Leviticus 21:4/אבן עזרא על ויקרא כ״א:ד׳
אלהחלו. דגשות הלמ״ד להתבלע אחר והוא שם הפעל מבנין נפעל:
1TO PROFANE HIMSELF. The lamed19. has a dagesh in it to compensate for the missing other lamed.20 is spelled with one lamed. However, it comes from a root that has two lameds. The dagesh in hechallo compensates for the missing root letter. Le-hechallo (to profane himself) is an infinitive in the nifal.
