SIBI-P1 Translation H5665-01
Servant of Nego
| Morphological Notes | Aramaic proper name; masculine singular; compound theophoric name built on the root עבד ('servant') + deity name Nego. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name derives from the Aramaic root עבד (ʿ-b-d), meaning 'to serve,' combined with the deity name Nego (a form of Nebo). Rendering it 'Servant of Nego' preserves the root meaning and reflects its form as a singular masculine theophoric proper name. |
