God-is-my-Judge (masculine proper name)
| Root | דּוּן/דִּין + אֵל (d-w-n / d-y-n + ʾ-l) |
| Core Meanings | to judge, govern, contend; God, mighty one |
| Semantic Range | Personal name meaning "God is my Judge"; borne by a wise figure in Ezekiel and the prophet/statesman in the Book of Daniel. |
| Conceptual Significance | The name confesses YHWH as ultimate judge and arbiter, expressing covenantal trust in divine justice. In biblical narrative, Daniel embodies faithful endurance under foreign rule, reinforcing the theological claim embedded in his name that God alone judges and vindicates. |
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew proper noun (HNp), masculine singular; compound theophoric name formed from a verbal element (דן/דני, likely "my judge") + אֵל (God). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines the verbal root דון/דין (“to judge”) with אֵל (“God”), yielding the meaning "God is my Judge." As a Hebrew proper noun (masculine singular), the rendering preserves its personal-name function while transparently reflecting the underlying verbal and theological components. |
