Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חָצַל (chatsal), meaning "to divide" or "to deliver."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Jahzeel in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name specific to the Old Testament context.

Usage: Jahzeel is a personal name meaning "God apportions" or "God divides." It is used in the context of a tribal leader or family head within the Israelite community.

Cultural and Historical Background: Jahzeel is recognized as the firstborn son of Naphtali, one of the twelve sons of Jacob, making him a patriarchal figure within the tribe of Naphtali. The tribe of Naphtali was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, each descending from one of Jacob's sons. The name Jahzeel reflects the ancient Hebrew practice of naming individuals in a way that acknowledges divine action or attributes, in this case, God's role in dividing or apportioning the land and blessings among His people.
