SIBI-P1 H5804-01
Strong-One (feminine place-name)
| Root | עזז (ʿ-z-z) |
| Core Meanings | strength, might, power, firmness, boldness |
| Semantic Range | A major Philistine city on the southern coastal plain of Canaan; by derivation, conveys the idea of strength or fortified might. |
| Conceptual Significance | Gaza was one of the five principal cities of the Philistines and often appears as a symbol of entrenched strength and opposition to Israel (e.g., in the narratives of Samson). Its name reflects the notion of fortified power embedded in the root עזז. |
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, feminine singular absolute; derived from the adjective עַז ("strong") from the root עזז. Used as the name of a Philistine city. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name עַזָּה (ʻAzzâh) derives from the root עזז, meaning "to be strong" or "mighty." It is a feminine singular proper noun (HNp), so the rendering "Strong-One" preserves the root sense of strength while indicating its feminine grammatical form as a place-name. |
