Transliteration: Ydiy`a'el
Pronunciation: yeh-dee-ah-EL

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew roots יָדַע (yada, meaning "to know") and אֵל (El, meaning "God")

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yediael in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of being "known by God" can be related to Greek terms like γινώσκω (ginōskō, Strong's G1097), meaning "to know."

Usage: The name Yediael means "God knows" or "Known by God." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a person who is recognized or acknowledged by God.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, names were often given to reflect personal characteristics, divine attributes, or significant events. The name Yediael, with its emphasis on divine knowledge, would have been a reminder of God's omniscience and personal relationship with His people. It reflects the belief that God is intimately aware of and involved in the lives of individuals.
