to Nob (Fruitfulness-place)
| Root | נוב (n-w-b) |
| Core Meanings | produce, fruit, yield, flourishing |
| Semantic Range | As a proper place name: Nob; by root association: fruitfulness, produce, yield, flourishing. |
| Conceptual Significance | Nob is known as a priestly city in the time of Saul. Its name’s association with fruitfulness or yield may subtly contrast with the tragic events that occur there, highlighting themes of loss, judgment, and interrupted blessing in Israel’s history. |
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, singular, with directional (locative) ה suffix indicating motion toward the place ("to Nob"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name נֹב (Nob) derives from the root נוב, meaning "to bear fruit" or "to yield." Rendering it as "Nob (Fruitfulness-place)" preserves the connection to the root’s sense of produce or flourishing, while "to" reflects the locative (directional) ending indicated in the morphology. |
