Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Azbuk, as it is a unique Hebrew proper noun without a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament.

Usage: Azbuk is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It appears once in the Old Testament.

Context: Azbuk is mentioned in the Book of Nehemiah as the father of Nehemiah, who was one of the leaders involved in the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls. In Nehemiah 3:16, it is recorded: "After him, Nehemiah son of Azbuk, ruler of a half-district of Beth-zur, made repairs up to a point opposite the tombs of David, as far as the artificial pool and the House of the Mighty." This passage highlights Azbuk's connection to a significant family involved in the restoration efforts during the post-exilic period. The mention of Azbuk, though brief, situates him within the context of the community's leadership and the collaborative efforts to restore Jerusalem's fortifications.
