My-People-is-Shaddai
| Root | עם + שדי (ʿ-m + š-d-y) |
| Core Meanings | people, kinsfolk, clan; might, overpowering strength, the Almighty |
| Semantic Range | Personal name meaning "my people is the Almighty," "kinsman of the Almighty," or "people belonging to the Almighty," expressing covenant identity and divine affiliation. |
| Conceptual Significance | As a theophoric name, it reflects Israelite identity rooted in belonging to Shaddai (the Almighty). It embodies covenant theology, affirming that one’s kinship group or personal identity is defined by relationship to the Almighty God of Israel. |
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper noun (HNp). Compound theophoric name formed from עַם (people) with 1cs suffix עַמִּי ("my people") + שַׁדַּי (Shaddai). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines עַמִּי (ʿammî, "my people" or "my kinsman") with שַׁדַּי (Shaddai, "the Almighty"). Rendering it "My-People-is-Shaddai" preserves the first-person singular possessive suffix ("my") and retains the covenantal title Shaddai, reflecting the masculine singular proper noun form (HNp). |
