SIBI-P1 H3470-04
Yah-has-saved
| Morphological Notes | Hebrew proper noun (HNp), masculine singular; theophoric compound of ישע (Qal perfect 3ms conceptually) + יה (short form of the divine name). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name is formed from the root ישע (to save, deliver) combined with the divine element יה (Yah). The rendering "Yah-has-saved" preserves the verbal sense of the Qal perfect (3ms) implied in the theophoric construction and reflects that this is a masculine singular proper name. |
