SIBI-P1 `H669-03`

to Double-Fruitfulness (Ephraim)

Root	פרה (p-r-h)
Core Meanings	fruitfulness, fertility, increase, productivity
Semantic Range	Ephraim as Joseph’s second son; the tribe descended from him; the tribal territory; by extension the northern kingdom of Israel.
Conceptual Significance	Ephraim, whose name recalls "double fruitfulness," embodies the blessing of abundance granted to Joseph and becomes a dominant tribe in the northern kingdom, often representing Israel as a whole in prophetic literature.
Morphological Notes	Preposition לְ ("to/for") prefixed to a proper masculine singular noun. אֶפְרַיִם is morphologically a dual form ("-ַיִם") but functions as a singular proper name referring to the person, tribe, or territory.
Rendering Rationale	The name אֶפְרַיִם derives from the root פרה ("to be fruitful") and carries a dual form suggesting "double fruitfulness." The preposition לְ is preserved as "to," and the proper masculine singular name is retained while making its root meaning explicit.
