Miryam

RootΜαρία (Maria (from Hebrew Miryam))
Core Meaningsproper name, Miryam, personal name of Hebrew origin
Semantic RangeThe personal name Miryam/Maria; in the New Testament it refers to several Jewish women, including the mother of Yeshua, Mary Magdalene, and others.
Conceptual SignificanceAs the Greek form of the Hebrew Miryam, the name ties key female figures of the New Testament to Israel’s heritage, echoing the Miryam of the Exodus and highlighting continuity between Israel’s account and the Messianic era.
Morphological NotesProper noun, nominative, feminine, singular (Gr,N,,,,,NFS,). Used as a subject or predicate nominative referring to a specific woman named Miryam.
Rendering RationaleThe Greek Μαρία represents the Hebrew name מִרְיָם (Miryam). Rendering it as "Miryam" preserves its Hebrew identity and root connection rather than the later Anglicized "Mary." The form is nominative feminine singular, functioning as the subject in context, which in English is conveyed simply by the uninflected name.
