Yah Has Emptied

Morphological NotesProper noun, masculine singular (HNp). The form בֻקִּיָּהוּ (Buqqîyāhû) combines the passive/intensive nuance of the root בקק with the theophoric suffix -יָהוּ (Yahu), a form of the divine name.
Rendering RationaleThe name derives from the root בקק (to empty, lay waste) combined with the theophoric element יָהּ (Yah). Rendering it "Yah Has Emptied" preserves the verbal force of the root and reflects the masculine singular proper noun (HNp), presenting the name as a declarative statement about Yah’s action.
