SIBI-P1 H1835-05

from Dan (Judge)

Morphological NotesPreposition מִן ("from") prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun (Np). דָּן is a personal and tribal name; singular in form though it may represent a tribe or territory collectively.
Rendering RationaleThe form מִדָּן consists of the preposition מִן ("from") prefixed to the proper masculine singular name דָּן (Dan), which derives from the root דין (to judge). Rendering it "from Dan (Judge)" preserves the directional preposition and reflects the singular masculine proper name while making visible its root meaning, "Judge."
