Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Azubah, as it is a proper name specific to Hebrew culture and context. However, the concept of being "forsaken" can be related to Greek words like ἐγκαταλείπω (egkataleipō - Strong's G1459), meaning "to forsake" or "abandon."

Usage: The name Azubah means "forsaken" or "abandoned." In the Bible, it is used as a proper name for two women. The name may reflect a cultural or familial context, possibly indicating a difficult birth or circumstances surrounding the child's birth or life.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names often held significant meaning and were sometimes reflective of circumstances or prophetic insights. The name Azubah, meaning "forsaken," might have been given in a context of hardship or as a reminder of God's faithfulness despite human abandonment. The use of such names can be seen as a testament to the belief in God's sovereignty and the hope for redemption and restoration.
