SIBI-P1 H8555-01
Restraint (feminine proper name)
| Morphological Notes | Feminine singular proper noun (HNp). Though identical in form to the Qal imperfect 2ms ("you will restrain"), in these occurrences it functions as a proper name derived from the verbal root. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name תִּמְנָע (Timnaʿ) derives from the root מנע, meaning "to restrain" or "to withhold." Rendering it as "Restraint" preserves the core verbal idea while reflecting that it is a feminine singular proper noun, used as a personal or place name. |
