Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Jehojarib, as it is a Hebrew proper noun specific to the Old Testament context. However, the concept of priestly service and divine advocacy can be related to Greek terms used in the New Testament for priestly roles, such as ἱερεύς (hiereus, Strong's Greek 2409) for "priest."

Usage: Jehojarib is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is associated with a priestly lineage.

Context: Jehojarib is a name mentioned in the context of the priestly divisions established by King David. According to 1 Chronicles 24:7, Jehojarib is the head of the first of the twenty-four priestly courses. This division of priests was responsible for serving in the temple, and each course would serve for a specific period. The name Jehojarib signifies the role of divine advocacy or contention, reflecting the priestly duty of interceding on behalf of the people before God.

In the post-exilic period, the descendants of Jehojarib are noted among those who returned to Jerusalem and Judah from the Babylonian exile. Nehemiah 11:10 mentions the sons of Jehojarib as part of the community that resettled in Jerusalem, indicating the continuation of this priestly line and their involvement in the restoration of temple worship.

The name Jehojarib underscores the theological theme of divine intervention and advocacy, as the priests were seen as mediators between God and the people, contending for their spiritual well-being.
