Yahweh-has-given
| Root | נתן (n-t-n) |
| Core Meanings | to give, to place, to set, to bestow |
| Semantic Range | As a personal name: “Yahweh has given” or “given by Yahweh.” By extension, it conveys the idea of divine gift, endowment, or blessing. |
| Conceptual Significance | The name expresses the theology of divine gifting, acknowledging children or leadership as bestowed by Yahweh. It reflects Israel’s conviction that life, victory, and covenant blessings are gifts from their covenant God. |
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, masculine singular (HNp). Theophoric compound formed from יהוה + נָתַן (Qal perfect 3ms, “he has given”). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines the divine name יהוה (Yahweh) with the Qal perfect 3rd masculine singular form of נתן (“he has given”). Rendering it as “Yahweh-has-given” preserves both the verbal force of the root and the masculine singular proper-name form indicated by the morphology (HNp). |
