SIBI-P1 H5935-01

Lofty One

Morphological NotesMasculine singular proper noun; personal name formed from the root עלה with a nominal pattern indicating a characteristic or quality.
Rendering RationaleThe name derives from the root עלה (ʿ-l-h), meaning "to go up" or "to ascend," conveying the idea of height or exaltation. As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), the rendering "Lofty One" preserves both the root sense of elevation and the singular masculine form of the name.
