Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Azaryah or Azaryahu in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as these are Hebrew names. However, the Greek transliteration of the name in the Septuagint is often rendered as Azarias (Ἀζαρίας).

Usage: The name Azaryah or Azaryahu means "Yahweh has helped" or "Yahweh is my help." It is a common Hebrew name found in the Old Testament, often given to individuals who were seen as recipients of God's aid or favor.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names were often theophoric, incorporating the name of God to reflect faith, divine attributes, or experiences. The name Azaryah signifies reliance on God's assistance and was borne by several notable figures in the Bible, including priests, prophets, and kings. This reflects the cultural importance of divine help and protection in the lives of the Israelites.
