SIBI-P1 Translation H466-01
El is his deliverer
| Morphological Notes | Proper masculine singular personal name (theophoric), incorporating a 3ms pronominal element ("his"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines אֵל (El, God) with פָּלָה (to distinguish, to deliver) plus a third masculine singular pronominal element, forming a theophoric statement meaning "El is his deliverer." This preserves the root sense of divine distinction or deliverance inherent in פלה. |
