| Core Meanings | name, mark, memorial, reputation, renown, authority |
| Semantic Range | personal name, title, reputation, fame, memorial, authority, character, established identity |
| Conceptual Significance | In biblical thought, a "name" represents the essence, character, and authority of a person or deity. To act "in the name" is to act under authority; to make a "name" is to establish enduring renown; and the divine Name embodies covenant presence and revealed character. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ prefixed to a masculine singular common noun in the construct state (Ncmsc). The construct form requires a following genitive complement ("name of …"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun שֵׁם denotes a "name" as a defining mark or memorial of identity, often extending to reputation or authority. The form is masculine singular in the construct state with the prefixed conjunction וְ, so "and name of" preserves both the singular number and its dependent (construct) relationship to a following noun. |
