Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root עָתָה (athah), meaning "to come" or "to arrive."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name עֲתָיָה (Athajah), as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament. Usage: Athajah is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Athajah is a name found in the genealogical records of the post-exilic community in the Book of Chronicles. Specifically, Athajah is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 9:12, where he is listed among the priests who returned to Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. The name reflects a common practice of the time, where names were often theophoric, incorporating the name of God (Yahweh) to signify divine presence or action. The inclusion of Athajah in the genealogical records underscores the continuity of the priestly line and the restoration of religious practices in Jerusalem. The name itself, meaning "Yahweh has come," may symbolize the hope and fulfillment of God's promises to restore His people and His presence among them.
