Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Pelet in the Strong's Greek concordance, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a direct Greek counterpart. However, the concept of "deliverance" or "escape" can be related to Greek terms such as σωτηρία (soteria, Strong's Greek 4991), meaning "salvation" or "deliverance."

Usage: The name Pelet appears in the context of genealogies and family lineages within the Old Testament. It is used to identify specific individuals within the tribes of Israel.

Context: • Pelet is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Judah. He is identified as a son of Jonathan, who is a descendant of Jerahmeel, a member of the tribe of Judah. This lineage is detailed in 1 Chronicles 2:33, which states: "The sons of Jonathan: Peleth and Zaza. These were the descendants of Jerahmeel."
• Another mention of Pelet is found in 1 Chronicles 12:3, where he is listed among the mighty men who joined David at Ziklag. This passage highlights the loyalty and valor of those who supported David during his time of need: "Ahiezer their chief, Joash son of Shemaah the Gibeathite, Jeziel and Pelet the sons of Azmaveth, Beracah, Jehu the Anathothite."
• The name Pelet, meaning "deliverance," may reflect the hope or experience of divine rescue or protection, a theme consistent with the broader narrative of the Israelites' reliance on God's deliverance throughout their history.
