Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Chazayah, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament. However, Greek names that incorporate the concept of divine vision or sight, such as Θεόρασις (Theorasis), could be considered thematically related.

Usage: Chazayah is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible.

Context: Chazayah is a name found in the genealogical records of the tribe of Benjamin. It is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 23:9, where Chazayah is listed as one of the sons of Shimei, a Levite. The name reflects a common practice in Hebrew culture of incorporating the divine name Yahweh into personal names, signifying a relationship or experience with God. The meaning "Yahweh has seen" suggests a recognition of God's omniscience and providence in the life of the individual or family. The use of such names often indicates a deep sense of faith and reliance on God's vision and guidance.
