Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Baara, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament writings.

Usage: The name Baara appears in the Hebrew Bible as a female figure. It is specifically mentioned in the genealogical records.

Context: Baara is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Benjamin. She is identified as one of the wives of Shaharaim, a Benjamite. The reference to Baara is found in 1 Chronicles 8:8, where it states, "And Shaharaim had sons in the country of Moab after he had sent away Hushim and Baara his wives." This passage highlights her as part of the complex family dynamics and lineage of the tribe of Benjamin. The context suggests that Baara, along with Hushim, was sent away by Shaharaim, indicating a possible divorce or separation, which was not uncommon in the genealogical narratives of the Old Testament. The mention of Baara in the genealogical record underscores the importance of family lineage and heritage in the biblical narrative, particularly within the tribes of Israel.
