SIBI-P1 H4872-04
Drawn-Out-One
| Root | משׁה (m-š-h) |
| Core Meanings | to draw out, pull out, extract, lift from water |
| Semantic Range | Primarily the personal name of Israel’s deliverer and lawgiver; etymologically connected to being drawn out (especially from water), and by extension associated with deliverance. |
| Conceptual Significance | Mosheh stands as the central human mediator of the Torah, the one drawn out from death in the Nile and later used by יהוה to draw out Israel from Egypt. His name encapsulates both his origin story and his divinely appointed role as deliverer. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun (HNp). Personal name formed from the verbal root משׁה, likely functioning as a passive participial idea, "one who is drawn out." |
| Rendering Rationale | The name מֹשֶׁה (Môsheh) derives from the root משׁה, "to draw out," reflecting Exodus 2:10 where he is drawn out of the water. Rendering it as "Drawn-Out-One" preserves the passive sense of the Qal idea and reflects the masculine singular proper noun form (HNp). |
