Ar (the City)
| Root | עיר (ʿ-y-r) |
| Core Meanings | city, settlement, inhabited place, fortified town |
| Semantic Range | A specific Moabite city; by derivation connected conceptually to the idea of an established settlement or fortified habitation. |
| Conceptual Significance | Ar was an important city of Moab mentioned in Israel’s wilderness journey. Its name, simply meaning "city," may reflect its prominence as a central or fortified urban site within Moabite territory. |
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun (HNp), singular; place-name. Likely derived from the common noun עִיר ("city"), a feminine noun, though functioning here as a fixed proper name. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name עָר is a proper noun derived from the common noun עִיר (“city”). Rendering it as "Ar (the City)" preserves its identity as a singular place-name while making explicit its connection to the root meaning "city." The morphology (proper noun, singular) is reflected in the singular rendering. |
