and Name-of-Knowing
| Root | שם ידע (š-m; y-d-ʿ) |
| Core Meanings | name, reputation, renown; to know, perceive, understand, be acquainted with |
| Semantic Range | Proper personal name meaning "Name-of-Knowing" or "Renown of Knowledge"; refers to an Israelite individual and his clan. |
| Conceptual Significance | Hebrew personal names often encapsulate character, destiny, or theological confession. A name built on "name" and "knowing" reflects the biblical emphasis on reputation, remembrance, and covenantal knowledge within Israel’s tribal identity. |
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ ("and") prefixed to a masculine singular proper noun (Np). The name is likely a compound theophoric or descriptive formation from שֵׁם and יָדַע. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name שְׁמִידָע appears to be formed from שֵׁם (name) and יָדַע (to know), conveying the sense of "Name-of-Knowing." The prefixed וּ is the conjunction "and," and the form is a masculine singular proper noun, so the rendering preserves both the compound root meaning and the singular personal name with conjunction. |
