Root	דוד (d-w-d)
Core Meanings	to boil, to be fervent, affectionate love, belovedness
Semantic Range	beloved one, lover, intimate friend, uncle (father’s brother), love-token
Conceptual Significance	The term reflects the intertwining of kinship and affection in Hebrew thought, where close male relatives are described in terms of belovedness. It underscores the covenantal value placed on family bonds and intimate loyalty within Israelite society.
