SIBI-P1 Translation H3142-02
Kindness Is Restored
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper name; compound formation from a Niphal/passive participial form of שוב plus the noun חסד. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines the passive participial sense of שוב (“is restored/returned”) with חסד (“kindness, steadfast love”), yielding the declarative sense “Kindness Is Restored.” This preserves both the verbal restoration element and the covenant-loyalty nuance of חסד within a proper name form. |
