Original Word: אֲבִי עַלְבּוֹן
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Abi-albon
Pronunciation: ah-vee-ahl-BOHN
Phonetic Spelling: (ab-ee-al-bone')
Definition: Abi-albon
Meaning: Abialbon

Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: אָב (av, meaning "father") and עַלְבּוֹן (albon, meaning "strength" or "might").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Abi-albon, as it is a unique Hebrew proper noun. However, the concept of "mighty men" can be related to Greek terms for strength and valor, such as ἰσχυρός (ischyros, Strong's Greek 2478).

Usage: Abi-albon means "father of strength" or "father of might." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, specifically referring to one of King David's mighty warriors.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of the character or destiny of the individual. Abi-albon was one of the elite warriors in King David's army, known as the "mighty men" or "Gibborim." These warriors were renowned for their bravery, skill in battle, and loyalty to David. The role of a mighty man was not only to fight but also to protect the king and the nation of Israel.
