SIBI-P1 G2455-01
of Judah (Praise-of-Yah)
| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,GMSI = noun, genitive masculine singular, indeclinable proper name. The genitive case expresses possession, source, or association ("of Judah"). |
| Rendering Rationale | The form is genitive masculine singular, indicating possession or association, thus rendered "of Judah." The name derives from Hebrew יְהוּדָה (Yehudah), meaning "praise" or "praise of Yah," and the rendering preserves both the proper name and its covenantal-root meaning. |
