Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the proper noun בְּרִיעָה (Beriah), which is a personal name in the Hebrew Bible.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the term "Beriite" as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun related to the genealogical records of the Old Testament. However, genealogical terms and tribal names in the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible) may use transliterations or adaptations of Hebrew names to convey similar meanings.

Usage: The term "Beriite" is used to denote individuals or groups associated with Beriah, a figure mentioned in the genealogies of the tribes of Israel.

Context: The term "Beriite" refers to the descendants or members of the family of Beriah, who is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribes of Israel. Beriah is noted as a son of Asher, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, and thus a patriarch of one of the tribes of Israel. The Beriites, therefore, are part of the larger tribal confederation of Asherites. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, genealogies serve to establish tribal identities and inheritance rights, as well as to trace the lineage of significant figures within Israel's history. The mention of Beriites underscores the importance of family and tribal affiliations in the social and religious life of ancient Israel. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) provides a translation that maintains the integrity of these genealogical records, ensuring that the identity and heritage of the Beriites are preserved for readers and scholars alike.
