Yaʿaqov (Heel-grasper)
| Morphological Notes | Gr,N,,,,,NMS — Proper noun, nominative masculine singular; functions as a subject or predicate nominative in the clause. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Greek Ἰάκωβος is the Hellenized form of the Hebrew name יַעֲקֹב (Yaʿaqov), meaning "heel-grasper" or "supplanter." Rendering it as "Yaʿaqov (Heel-grasper)" preserves the Hebrew root meaning behind the Greek form while reflecting the nominative masculine singular proper noun used as the subject. |
