SIBI-P1 G2424-01
of/to Yahweh-is-salvation (masculine singular)
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, masculine singular; either genitive (GMS: “of Yahweh-is-salvation”) or dative (DMS: “to/for Yahweh-is-salvation”), depending on context. |
| Rendering Rationale | The form Ἰησοῦ is the genitive or dative masculine singular of Ἰησοῦς, a Greek rendering of the Hebrew יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (Yehoshua, “Yahweh is salvation”). Rendering it as “of/to Yahweh-is-salvation” preserves both the underlying theophoric meaning of the name and the grammatical case functions (genitive: possession/source; dative: indirect object/reference). |
