SIBI-P1 H3470-05
Yah Saves
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun (HNp). The form יְשַׁעְיָהוּ is a theophoric compound: verbal element from ישׁע + divine name element יהו/יהּ. No pronominal suffix; functions as a personal name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines the root ישׁע ("to save, deliver") with the theophoric element יָהּ ("Yah"). As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), it is rendered as a personal name meaning "Yah Saves," preserving both the verbal idea of salvation and the reference to Israel’s God. |
