Usage: The name Ἑσρώμ (Hezron) appears in the genealogies of Jesus Christ, as recorded in the New Testament. It is used to trace the lineage of Jesus back to the patriarchs, emphasizing His fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies concerning the Messiah.

Context: Ἑσρώμ (Hezron) is a significant figure in biblical genealogies, appearing in the lineage of Jesus Christ. Hezron is mentioned in the Gospel of Matthew, which traces the genealogy of Jesus through Joseph, His legal father. In Matthew 1:3, the Berean Standard Bible (BSB) states: "Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram."

Hezron is also a prominent figure in the Old Testament, where he is listed as a descendant of Judah, one of the twelve sons of Jacob. Hezron's lineage is significant in the context of the Davidic line, as King David himself is a descendant of Hezron. This connection underscores the fulfillment of the promise that the Messiah would come from the line of David, a central theme in both Jewish and Christian theology.

The genealogical records in the Bible serve to authenticate Jesus' rightful place as the promised Messiah, fulfilling the prophecies of the Old Testament. Hezron's inclusion in these genealogies highlights the continuity of God's plan of salvation through history, as seen in the lineage from Abraham to David, and ultimately to Jesus Christ.
