Strong's Lexicon Bithyah: Bithiah Original Word: בִּתְיָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words בַּת (bath, meaning "daughter") and יָהּ (Yah, a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Bithyah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a unique Hebrew name. However, the concept of adoption and divine favor can be linked to Greek terms such as υἱοθεσία (huiothesia, meaning "adoption as sons") found in the New Testament. Usage: Bithyah means "daughter of Yahweh." It is a personal name used in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a person who is seen as belonging to or favored by God. Cultural and Historical Background: Bithyah is traditionally identified as the daughter of Pharaoh who adopted Moses, as mentioned in Jewish tradition. Her name reflects a significant cultural and religious identity, indicating a connection to the God of Israel despite her Egyptian royal lineage. This name underscores the theme of divine adoption and favor, as she is seen as a pivotal figure in the preservation and upbringing of Moses, who would become a central leader in the history of Israel.
