Healer
| Morphological Notes | Noun, nominative masculine singular; proper name in subject form. |
| Rendering Rationale | Although functioning as a proper personal name in Koine Greek, Ἰάσων is etymologically an agentive form from ἰάομαι (to heal), meaning "one who heals." Rendering it as "Healer" preserves the root meaning while reflecting its nominative masculine singular form as a personal designation. |
