Berean Strong's Lexicon Qeros: Keros Original Word: קֵרוֹס Word Origin: Derived from an uncertain origin, possibly related to a name or title. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew name "Keros" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew context. Usage: The name "Keros" appears in the context of the post-exilic period of Israel's history. It is listed among the Nethinim, a group of temple servants who returned from the Babylonian exile with Zerubbabel. The Nethinim were assigned to assist the Levites in the service of the temple. Cultural and Historical Background: The Nethinim were a group of temple servants in ancient Israel, likely originating from non-Israelite peoples who were integrated into the service of the temple. Their role was to perform menial tasks and assist the Levites, allowing the Levites to focus on their priestly duties. The return of the Nethinim, including the family of Keros, was significant in re-establishing the religious practices and temple services in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile.
