Shining-Place

Morphological NotesFeminine singular proper noun (place name) with prefixed מ and -ת ending, formed from the root יפע; occurs as a geographic designation in prophetic texts.
Rendering RationaleThe name derives from the root יפע, meaning "to shine" or "to appear in radiance." As a feminine singular proper noun (HNp), it designates a specific location; "Shining-Place" preserves the root sense of radiance while reflecting its singular place-name form.
