(ישִׂימִ×ֵל) Hebrew name YESIYMAEL means "whom God makes" according to Gesenius. But hasn't he omitted the first element (Ye-)? It looks to actually be composed of 'el "god" and suwm "to create, to make" or "to place, to set" and yÄ• "to age, to grow old," from yashen "to blanch, to fester, to grow weary;" hence "whom God makes grow old," especially from a festering sickness called leprosy (Hebrew tsara'ath "leprosy" from tsara "struck down, smitten" by God). Gesenius states that "leprosy" (צָרַע) may be the same as (גָרַע) "scabby," so that it means to be struck by a scabby disease. In the bible, this is the name of a Simeonite chief of the family of Shimei. Jesimiel is the Anglicized form.
