SIBI-P1 Translation H45-01
My-Father-is-Strength
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun; compound theophoric-style personal name formed from אֲבִי ('my father') + עַלְבוֹן (element denoting strength/valor). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines אָב in the construct with first-person singular suffix implied in אֲבִי ('my father') and a second element likely denoting strength or valor. Rendering it as 'My-Father-is-Strength' preserves the possessive relationship and the core meaning of might embedded in the compound proper name. |
