Meaning of Isra-eyl
#1
Hey

I would like to know of the Aramaic definition of the first component of this word, ISRAEL. Of course, we know that EL or EYL refers to 'might' and is sometimes translated as 'god' but my concern is on the first component.

The common view is that this is from SARA meaning STRUGGLE, FIGHT, WRESTLE, but others take the view that it means PRINCE, and others still have said STRAIGHT. Could it be a compound of Aleph-Seen-Resh? If so, what meanings do you come up with in Aramaic?

Thanks
