1. Gershom (personal name) — A Hebrew personal name meaning 'a sojourner there' (from גֵּר שָׁם), borne by the firstborn son of Moses (Exod 2:22, 18:3) and also by a descendant of Phinehas (Ezra 8:2) and a Levite ancestor (1 Chr 6). The three clusters represent the same proper noun with minor spelling and prepositional variation: the primary form 'Gershom' (eng Gershom, spa Guersom, arb جَرشوم, kor 게르솜, swa Gershomu), a variant spelling (eng Gershom, spa Guersón, hin गेरशोम, arb جَرْشُومَ, kor 게르섬의, swa wa-Gershomu), and the dative form 'to Gershon' reflecting the alternate vocalization (eng to-Gershon, spa para-Gershón, hin गेर्शोन, arb لِجَرْشُونَ, kor 에게-게르소, swa Gershoni). All refer to the same personal name with predictable phonological variants. 14×
