# Elijah (H0452I) Based on the lexical data provided, אֵלִיָּה (Elijah) is a proper noun—a personal name—appearing once in the biblical text. The transliteration "e.liy.yah" reflects the Hebrew pronunciation of this figure's name. As a proper noun denoting a specific individual rather than a common noun with variable meanings, Elijah functions as an identifier for a particular person within the biblical narrative. The single occurrence in the biblical corpus suggests this particular form or spelling represents a specific textual reference. Since proper nouns serve to identify distinct individuals within narratives, this entry documents one attested instance of how this name appears in Hebrew Scripture. Without additional contextual information from the lexicon entry itself, we can note only that this represents the Hebrew form of a personal name that biblical writers used to designate a particular figure.
