Hadarezer: Hadadezer

Original Word: הֲדַדְעֶזֶר
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Hadarezer
Pronunciation: hah-dad-eh'-zer
Phonetic Spelling: (had-ar-eh'-zer)
Definition: Hadadezer
Meaning: Hadarezer

Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: הֲדַד (Hadad), a name of a Syrian deity, and עֶזֶר (ezer), meaning "help."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Hadarezer in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper name specific to the Hebrew text.

Usage: The name Hadarezer means "Hadad is my help" or "Hadad helps." It is used in the Bible to refer to a king of Zobah, a region in ancient Syria. Hadarezer is known for his conflicts with King David of Israel.

Cultural and Historical Background: Hadarezer was a king of Zobah, an Aramean kingdom located in the region of modern-day Syria. During the time of King David, Zobah was a significant power in the region. The Arameans, including those from Zobah, often clashed with Israel over territorial and political dominance. The name Hadarezer reflects the syncretism of the time, where local deities like Hadad were invoked for protection and assistance.
