Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name זִיזָה (Zizah), as it is a specific proper noun unique to the Hebrew genealogical context.

Usage: The name Zizah appears in the genealogical records of the tribe of Levi, specifically within the context of the Levitical families.

Context: Zizah is mentioned in the genealogical lists of the Levites, a tribe set apart for religious duties and temple service in ancient Israel. The name appears in 1 Chronicles 23:11, where Zizah is listed as a descendant of Shimei, a Levite. This passage is part of a broader context detailing the organization and responsibilities of the Levites during the reign of King David. The Levites were divided into various families and clans, each with specific roles in the service of the tabernacle and later the temple. Zizah's inclusion in this list underscores the importance of maintaining detailed genealogical records for the purpose of assigning religious duties and preserving tribal heritage.
