Etymology edit
Ernest Klein relates it to the base מוד related to the Hebrew מדד (“He measured”) and to the Arabic مد (“He stretched, prolonged”). Klein also states that Hommel relates it to the Arabic تأميد (“fixing, establishing”) the infinitive of أماد. Furthermore, Klein states that Geiger and Peres think that it is a contraction of תעמיד from עמד (“to stand”). On the other hand, Even-Shoshan lists מוד as the root and the Arabic ماد (mād) as a cognate. He also states that some scholars hypothesize that it is a contraction of תמאיד.
