to Jewish Names
Why is it that when the Divine name י-ה appears in Tanakh, the letter ה always has a dagesh, but when that Divine name appears as a theophoric element in a personal name, the dagesh is missing?
[By the way, I was recently hired to write a column about Jewish Names in a new Jewish women's magazine that will be launching in a few months. If anybody has any ideas for my column or resources that they can recommend, I'm all ears.]
