Morphological Notes

Preposition לְ (“to/for”) prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun (Np), עֵשָׂו (Esau). No pronominal suffix; directional/dative sense.

Rendering Rationale

The name עֵשָׂו is traditionally understood as deriving from the root עשה (“to make/do”), likely reflecting a passive or adjectival sense connected with being ‘made’ or ‘formed,’ understood in context as ‘rough’ or ‘fully formed.’ The prefixed לְ indicates direction or relation (“to”), and as a masculine singular proper noun (Np), the rendering preserves both the root sense and the grammatical form.
