Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root חָזָה (chazah), meaning "to see" or "to behold."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Chozai, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a corresponding Greek translation in the Septuagint or New Testament. However, the root concept of "seeing" or "beholding" can be related to Greek words like ὁράω (horao, Strong's Greek 3708), which means "to see" or "to perceive." Usage: The name Chozai appears in the context of genealogical records in the Old Testament. Context: • Chozai is mentioned in the book of Nehemiah, specifically in Nehemiah 11:5. The passage lists the descendants of Judah who lived in Jerusalem after the return from the Babylonian exile. Chozai is identified as the father of Maaseiah, one of the leaders who resettled in Jerusalem. The name Chozai itself is not accompanied by additional narrative or historical details, and its mention is primarily genealogical, serving to establish the lineage and heritage of those who played a role in the restoration of Jerusalem. The context suggests a person of some standing, given the inclusion in the list of notable families.
