Lehite PN 1. A female PN in the Book of Mormon of a harlot who caused ALMA the Younger's son CORIANTON to abandon his mission and follow her into the land of SIRON (Alma 39:3).

Etymology

The PN ISABEL is a variant spelling of biblical Jezebel, from the Hebrew ʾîzebel, “where is (the) Prince?”[1] (The King James spelling follows the Septuagint, ιεζαβελ, not the Hebrew.)

Variants

Deseret Alphabet: 𐐆𐐝𐐈𐐒𐐇𐐢 (ɪsæbɛl)
