My Mighty One
| Root | אל (ʾ-l) |
| Core Meanings | strength, might, power, mighty one, deity |
| Semantic Range | God, mighty one, strong one, deity, power; in names, a theophoric element meaning "Mighty One" or "God." |
| Conceptual Significance | אֵל emphasizes God as the Mighty One, highlighting divine strength and supremacy. As both a common noun for God and a component in personal names, it reflects Israel’s confession of YHWH as the ultimate source of power and the personal relationship implied in expressions such as "My Mighty One." |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular noun; frequently appears in construct with 1cs pronominal suffix ("-i," "my"). Also occurs as a proper masculine singular name (Eli), retaining the theophoric element from אֵל. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun אֵל (ʾêl) derives from the root conveying strength and might. In the form marked HNcmsc/Sp1cs, it is a masculine singular noun in construct with a first person common singular suffix, literally "God of me" or "my Mighty One," which preserves both the root sense of strength and the grammatical possession. As a proper noun (HNp), Eli carries the same meaning embedded in a personal name. |
