‡ESROM Jaredite PN Prince (Ether 8:4) No etymology is suggested here. Unless the Book of Mormon critical text reveals variant spellings, it is unlikely that this Jaredite name can be linked with NEPHITE EZROM, a name for a silver weight. This name, also appearing in CHRIST’s geneaology in Matthew 1:3 Hesrōm, is the Greek representation of the Hebrew PN Hezron, from ḥeṣrôn, “enclosure, girded,” etc., in Genesis 46:9 & 12, Ruth 4:18-19, and other places. In Joshua 15:3 it appears as a GN. *There are several Akkadian possibilities with the root ’sr. Cf. Book of Mormon ZORAM, et al., EZROM
