# Analysis of Elah (H0425J) Based on the lexical data provided, "Elah" (אֵלָה) appears in the Hebrew Bible only twice, which significantly limits what can be determined about its usage patterns and semantic range. The designation as a proper noun ("Elah") suggests this is a name rather than a common word with variable meanings. With only two occurrences, no meaningful analysis of usage variation or contextual nuance is possible. To provide accurate information about this word's significance and function in biblical Hebrew, one would need access to the specific verses where it appears, the broader linguistic context of those occurrences, and detailed etymological or semantic information—none of which is included in the provided lexicon data. The rarity of attestation (only 2 occurrences) means that typical patterns of biblical language use cannot be reliably established from this entry alone. Without additional data, responsible analysis cannot proceed beyond acknowledging that this is an extremely limited term in biblical usage and that determining its theological or linguistic importance would require consulting the actual biblical passages and expanded lexical resources.
