Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be longCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Arioch, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text. However, the concept of a "lion-like" figure can be thematically linked to Greek terms for strength and nobility, though no specific Greek term is directly equivalent. Usage: Arioch is a proper noun used as a name for two individuals in the Old Testament. Context: • Arioch in Genesis: Arioch is mentioned as the king of Ellasar in Genesis 14:1. He is one of the four kings allied with Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, who waged war against the five kings of the cities of the plain, including the king of Sodom. This battle is significant as it sets the stage for Abram's (later Abraham) rescue of his nephew Lot, who was taken captive during the conflict. The name Arioch, meaning "lion-like," may suggest a formidable or noble character, fitting for a king involved in such a significant military campaign.
