Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name לְבָנָא (Lebana, Lebanah) as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament.

Usage: This proper noun is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible.

Context: Lebana (Lebanah) is a name mentioned in the context of the post-exilic period of Israel's history. It appears in the list of those who returned from the Babylonian exile and were involved in the covenant renewal under Nehemiah. Specifically, Lebana is listed among the Levites who participated in the public reading and explanation of the Law, as well as in the confession and worship of the people. This indicates that Lebana was likely a person of some standing and responsibility within the community, contributing to the spiritual and communal restoration of Israel after the exile.
Biblical Reference: Nehemiah 9:4 • "And the Levites—Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani—stood on the stairs and cried out with a loud voice to the LORD their God."
