Strong's Lexicon Yibchar: Yibchar Original Word: יָבְחַר Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root בָּחַר (bachar), meaning "to choose" or "to select." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for the proper name Yibchar, the concept of choosing or selection is reflected in the Greek word ἐκλέγομαι (eklegomai), Strong's Greek #1586, which means "to choose" or "to select." Usage: Yibchar is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. The name is derived from the root meaning "to choose," suggesting a connotation of being chosen or selected, possibly indicating a person of significance or favor. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names were often given with significant meanings, reflecting the character, destiny, or divine purpose of the individual. The root בָּחַר (bachar) is frequently used in the Hebrew Bible to describe God's sovereign choice, whether in selecting individuals, such as kings or prophets, or in choosing Israel as His people. The name Yibchar, therefore, carries the implication of divine selection or favor.
