SIBI-P1 Translation H4641-03
and Yahweh’s deed
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וּ + masculine singular proper noun; theophoric compound noun incorporating יָהּ. |
| Rendering Rationale | The name derives from מַעֲשֶׂה ("deed, work, accomplishment") from the root עשה combined with the theophoric element יָהּ (Yah). The prefixed וּ is the conjunction "and," so the full form is rendered "and Yahweh’s deed," preserving both the compound name and its morphology. |
