his name

Rootשם (sh-m)
Core Meaningsname, designation, reputation, renown, identity, memorial
Semantic Rangepersonal name, designation, reputation, fame, authority, character, memorial of identity
Conceptual SignificanceIn biblical thought, a "name" represents more than a label; it embodies character, authority, and renown. To act in someone’s name is to act under their authority, and the preservation or glorification of a name reflects enduring honor and identity.
Morphological NotesAramaic noun, common masculine singular in construct form (שְׁמֵהּ) with 3ms pronominal suffix ("his"). Corresponds to Hebrew שֵׁם. Occurs in Aramaic sections of the Hebrew Bible.
Rendering RationaleThe noun derives from the root שם (sh-m), denoting a name as a marker of identity, reputation, or renown. The form is masculine singular construct with a 3rd masculine singular pronominal suffix, yielding the precise sense "his name," preserving both the possessive relationship and the singular masculine reference.
