Leah (proper noun: Jacob's first wife)
Senses
1. Leah (proper noun: Jacob's first wife) — The proper name Leah, referring to the elder daughter of Laban and first wife of the patriarch Jacob, mother of six of the twelve tribes of Israel; consistently transliterated across all prepositional and conjunctive frames as Leah/Leá (Spa), लेआ/लेआह (Hin), لَيْئَة (Arb), 레아 (Kor), Lea (Swa). The variation between bare nominative, dative (to-Leah), comparative (more-than-Leah), and conjunction-prefixed forms represents purely syntactic packaging of a single proper-noun referent, with no semantic distinction across the three clusters. 34×
