# Analysis of H3475 (Jesher) Based on the lexical data provided, H3475 represents a Hebrew word transliterated as "Jesher" that appears only once in the biblical text. The single occurrence severely limits what can be determined about its semantic range or theological significance. With only one attestation, it is impossible to establish patterns of usage or to distinguish between different meanings the word might carry. The designation as a proper name (given the capitalization in the transliteration) suggests that Jesher likely functions as a personal name rather than a common noun with a broader semantic field. This further constrains analysis, as proper names typically serve a single referential function—identifying a specific person—rather than communicating meaning across multiple contexts or applications. Without additional occurrences or contextual information from the lexicon data itself, the word's role in biblical literature remains minimal and its significance difficult to assess. The extreme rarity of this term in the biblical corpus means it would have been of marginal importance to ancient readers and remains of limited interest to modern biblical study. Only by consulting the surrounding biblical narrative in which it appears could one determine the historical or theological relevance of whoever or whatever "Jesher" designates.
