Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Abiezer in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name.

It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying reliance on divine assistance and the acknowledgment of God as a source of help and strength. Cultural and Historical Background: Abiezer is a significant figure in the genealogies of the tribe of Manasseh, one of the tribes of Israel.
