SIBI-P1 H728-01
Aravnah (possibly “Firm One”)
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew proper noun (masculine singular), spelled אֲרַוְנָה; orthographic variants include אוֹרְנָה and אׇרְנָן (Ornan). Occurs as the name of a Jebusite in the David narrative. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is a masculine singular proper noun (HNp) referring to a specific Jebusite man. Because the underlying root is uncertain and may be non-Hebrew, the name is preserved in transliteration; the parenthetical gloss reflects a possible connection to a root conveying firmness or strength while maintaining the singular masculine identity. |
