3107. Yozabad

Berean Strong's Lexicon

Yozabad: Yozabad

Original Word: יוֹזָבָד
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Yozabad
Pronunciation: yo-zaw-bawd'
Phonetic Spelling: (yo-zaw-bawd')
Definition: Yozabad
Meaning: Jozabad

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יָדַד (yadad), meaning "to love" or "to give," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yozabad in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of God giving or bestowing is reflected in Greek words like διδόναι (didonai), meaning "to give."

Usage: The name Yozabad means "Yahweh has given" or "Yahweh bestows." It is used as a personal name for several individuals in the Old Testament, reflecting a recognition of God's providence and generosity.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the child's birth. The name Yozabad, incorporating the divine name Yahweh, suggests a strong acknowledgment of God's role in the life of the individual or family. This reflects the theocentric worldview of the Israelites, where God's involvement in daily life was a central belief.
