SIBI-P1 H5146-01

Resting-One

Rootנוח (n-w-ḥ)
Core Meaningsrest, settle down, repose, quietness, relief
Semantic RangePersonal name meaning "rest" or "resting"; evokes relief, repose, or settling after turmoil.
Conceptual SignificanceNoach stands as the figure through whom relief and renewed stability come after the flood judgment. His name anticipates themes of rest and comfort (cf. Genesis 5:29), symbolizing divine preservation and the reestablishment of order in creation.
Morphological NotesMasculine singular proper noun (personal name), absolute form; from the verbal root נוח.
Rendering RationaleThe name נֹחַ (Nōaḥ) derives from the root נוח, meaning "to rest" or "to settle." Rendering it as "Resting-One" preserves the verbal idea of rest inherent in the root while reflecting the masculine singular proper noun form indicated by the morphology (HNp).
