Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for יִשְׁוִי (Yishvi) as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun related to the genealogical records of the Old Testament. The Greek Septuagint may transliterate or translate the name differently, but it does not have a direct equivalent in the Strong's Greek lexicon.

Usage: The term יִשְׁוִי (Yishvi) is used in the context of genealogical records in the Hebrew Bible, identifying a specific individual or family lineage.

Context: Yishvi is a proper noun found in the Hebrew Bible, specifically in the genealogical records of the tribe of Asher. Yishvi is listed as one of the sons of Asher, who was one of the twelve sons of Jacob, making him one of the tribal patriarchs of Israel. The name Yishvi appears in the context of the family lineage of Asher, highlighting the importance of genealogical records in the biblical narrative.

In the Berean Standard Bible, Yishvi is mentioned in Genesis 46:17: "The sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, and their sister Serah. The sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel." This passage is part of the larger genealogical account that details the descendants of Jacob who went to Egypt during the time of Joseph.

The mention of Yishvi in the genealogical records underscores the significance of family heritage and tribal identity in ancient Israel. The tribe of Asher, to which Yishvi belonged, was one of the twelve tribes that formed the nation of Israel. Each tribe had its own distinct lineage, and these records were crucial for maintaining the identity and inheritance rights of the Israelites.
