Gidʿon (the Feller)
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew proper noun, masculine singular; personal name formed from the verbal root גדע with a nominal pattern indicating an agent ("one who cuts down"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name derives from the root גדע, meaning "to cut down" or "hew off." As a masculine singular proper noun (HNp), it refers to one male individual; "the Feller" preserves the active, agentive sense of the root while reflecting the singular masculine identity of the name. |
