SIBI-P1 Translation H3083-02

to Yehonatan (YHWH-has-given)

Morphological NotesPreposition לְ (to/for) prefixed to masculine singular proper name יְהוֹנָתָן.
Rendering RationaleThe base name יְהוֹנָתָן means "YHWH has given," combining the theophoric Yeho- (YHWH) with נָתַן (to give). The prefixed לְ indicates "to/for," so the rendering preserves both the divine-gift meaning of the name and the prepositional morphology.
