Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חָשַׁב (chashab), meaning "to think, account, or consider."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Chashnah, as it is a specific Hebrew name found in the Old Testament. However, the concept of returning exiles and genealogical records can be related to Greek terms used in the New Testament for similar contexts, such as γενεαλογία (genealogia, Strong's Greek 1076) for "genealogy."

Usage: The name Chashnah appears in the genealogical records of the post-exilic community in the Book of Nehemiah.

Context: Chashnah is mentioned in the context of the return from the Babylonian exile. The name appears in Nehemiah 7:54, where it is listed among the descendants of Solomon's servants who returned to Jerusalem and Judah. This group was part of the larger community that came back to rebuild and restore the city and its temple. The mention of Chashnah in this genealogical record highlights the continuity of the Israelite community and their dedication to reestablishing their religious and cultural identity after the exile. The name itself, derived from a root meaning "to think" or "to account," may suggest a person of thoughtful or considered character, though specific details about the individual are not provided in the biblical text.
