Dear Members,

I wonder if somebody would be kind enough to direct me in  
understanding why the verb שחה in the Hitpael is often found with a  
seghol Heh ending in the 1st person plural.

For example:  Gen 22:5 we worship....   נִשְתָחַוֶה when  
the expected is NiSHTaCHU  with the normal 1st person plural ending.   
I have Gesenius but it is hard to know under precisely what category  
of grammar I should be looking for because my searches for an answer  
have come up empty.  If he does mention it then I would welcome a  
reference.  Thankyou for your time.
