Strong's Lexicon Yaazanyahu or Yaazanyah: Jaazaniah Original Word: יַאֲזַנְיָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יָעַז (ya'az), meaning "to hear" or "to listen," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Yaazanyahu, as it is a Hebrew proper noun. However, the concept of God hearing or listening is reflected in Greek terms like ἀκούω (akouo, Strong's G191), meaning "to hear." Usage: The name Yaazanyahu means "Yahweh hears" or "Yahweh listens." It is used as a personal name for several individuals in the Old Testament, signifying a recognition of God's attentiveness to His people. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were reflective of the individual's character or the parents' faith. The name Yaazanyahu, incorporating the divine name Yahweh, indicates a cultural emphasis on the relationship between the individual and God. It reflects a belief in God's active involvement in the lives of His people, a central theme in the Hebrew Scriptures.
