Yah has considered
| Morphological Notes | Masculine singular proper name; compound of Qal perfect 3ms from חָשַׁב with the theophoric suffix יָהּ (Yah). |
| Rendering Rationale | The name combines the root חָשַׁב (to consider, reckon) with the theophoric element יָהּ (Yah), expressing a Qal perfect sense: "Yah has considered." This preserves the verbal force and divine subject embedded in the morphology of the name. |
