Strong's Lexicon
Abdiel: Abdiel

Original Word: עֲבְדִּיאֵל
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Abdiel
Pronunciation: av-dee-EL
Phonetic Spelling: (ab-dee-ale')
Definition: Abdiel
Meaning: Abdiel

Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: עֶבֶד (ʿeved, meaning "servant") and אֵל (El, meaning "God").

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

Usage: The name Abdiel means "Servant of God" or "Worshiper of God." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a person dedicated to serving and honoring God.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, names often held significant meaning and were reflective of one's character or relationship with God. The name Abdiel, indicating servitude to God, would have been a testament to the individual's faith and devotion. The use of "El" in the name highlights the theocentric nature of Israelite society, where God was central to identity and purpose.
