SIBI-P1 H3837-02
White-One
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew proper noun, masculine singular (HNp). Functions as a personal name (and occasionally a place name), with no pronominal suffix or stem variation. |
| Rendering Rationale | The proper name לָבָן derives from the root לבן meaning "white" or "to be white." Rendering it as "White-One" preserves the root sense while reflecting the masculine singular proper noun form (HNp), indicating a single male individual. |
