Saul
Saul is the first king of Israel; son of Kish. |
(sha'al 2303) means to ask, inquire, borrow, beg. Derivatives: 
(she'la 2303a) means request, demand. The derivative 
(she'ol 2303c), which is identical to the name Saul, curiously enough is the famous word Sheol, meaning grave, pit, or in some applications, hell.
