Not all the doubled stems below are doubled in the same phrase. Some like the unique 2 Kings 7:4, are within if-then constructs. Zechariah is a unique form.
13 have the form of Genesis 2:14. Another 23 are like Genesis 26:11, a legal formulation.
The form of the word תמתון in Genesis 3 occurs only one other time, in Isaiah 22:14, a plural for the unity of all, whether the pair or the country. The alternative ending may be from Aramaic influence on spelling. Perhaps it is no more significant than doeth or do in English. (There is a similar form with full spelling in Psalms 82:7.) As far as I can see, the ending for this second person imperfect plural is simply an alternative spelling.
My tether is maximum awkwardness in English glossing! How I wish I could simply accept the assumption that emphasis is the purpose of some of these doubles. One day I will have to find them all again and change them to variations on put to death.
