בִּגְוַי

# Bigvai: A Biblical Name Bigvai (בִּגְוַי) appears three times in the Hebrew Bible and functions as a proper noun—specifically, a personal name. The lexicon data provides no semantic decomposition or common noun meaning, indicating this is a fixed name rather than a word with variable usage across different contexts. Given its appearance in only three biblical passages, Bigvai represents a relatively minor figure in the biblical narrative. Without additional contextual information from the lexicon entry itself, the limited frequency of occurrence suggests this individual or family name held significance for specific biblical communities but did not feature prominently in the broader scriptural record. The consistent transliteration as a proper noun across all occurrences indicates stable transmission of the name through biblical texts. For readers encountering this name, it serves primarily as an identifier for particular persons or groups mentioned in specific biblical passages rather than conveying theological or descriptive meaning. The name's presence in the biblical corpus, though infrequent, indicates its importance to the communities and genealogies being documented.
