SIBI-P1 H2228-02

Yah Has Risen

Morphological NotesMasculine singular proper noun (HNp). Compound theophoric name formed from זרח (Qal perfect sense "has risen/shone") + יָהּ (short form of the divine name YHWH).
Rendering RationaleThe name combines the root זרח ("to rise, shine") with the theophoric element יָהּ (Yah). Rendering it as "Yah Has Risen" preserves the verbal sense of the root and reflects the masculine singular proper noun form (HNp), which designates an individual male bearer of this name.
