SIBI-P1 H7014-03
Acquired-One
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew proper noun, masculine singular (HNp). Personal name applied to the firstborn son of Adam and later to a place and a tribal group (Kenites). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name קַיִן (Qayin) is traditionally linked by wordplay to the root קנה (q-n-h, "to acquire" or "to get"), as reflected in Genesis 4:1. Rendering it "Acquired-One" preserves this root connection while reflecting the masculine singular proper noun form (HNp). |
