Jaredite PN | 1. | Son of JARED (Ether 6:14) |
Etymology
Until possible language affinities for JAREDITE names can be determined, all suggestions for etymologies of JAREDITE names must remain more speculative than substantive. With that caveat, the onomasticon does offer etymologies for some JAREDITE names, especially if it is possible that some JAREDITE names were translated into NEPHITE, or were otherwise related to one or more Semitic languages.
For the meaning of the PN JACOM, one may compare the HEBREW verbal root qām in the qal 3 m.s. jussive with a suppressed name of deity, thus, yaqom[yahu / el], meaning "let [the Lord or God] arise/rise up."
