Paqad covers a range of attention — to visit, to muster (as for a census), to appoint, to call to account. Its sense depends on the direction of God’s attention.
God paqads Sarah in mercy, granting a son; he paqads idolatry in judgment. Either way, the verb means God is not detached: he attends to his people and to evil.
