Etymology: Based on a Biblical hapax found in Psalms 88:5.A Biblical hapax legomenon found in Psalms 88:5 "הָיִיתִי כְּגֶבֶר אֵין אֱיָל", traditionally understood to mean "strength, might" (compare the Targum's חֵילָא). The noun became productive in post-Biblical Hebrew, especially in medieval Hebrew poetry and prose, and also gave rise to the rare verbs אָיַל (ayál) and אייל / אִיֵּל (iyél). Its ultimate origin is uncertain; no convincing cognates are known elsewhere in the Semitic languages, though Syriac ܐܝܠܐ (ʾəyālā, ʾīyālā, “help, assistance”) has been compared. Ben-Yehuda suggested that it may be one of several Biblical words arising through textual corruption, while noting that it nevertheless became well established in later Hebrew literature.
