Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root שׁבק (shabak), which means "to leave" or "to forsake."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Shobek, as it is a unique proper noun specific to the Hebrew text. However, the concept of leaving or forsaking, related to the root שׁבק, can be found in various Greek terms used in the Septuagint and New Testament, such as ἀφίημι (aphiēmi • Strong's Greek 863), which means "to leave" or "to forgive."

Usage: The name Shobek appears in the context of post-exilic Israel, specifically in the book of Nehemiah.

Context: • Shobek is mentioned in the book of Nehemiah, which details the return of the Jewish exiles from Babylon and the rebuilding of Jerusalem's walls. In Nehemiah 12:29, Shobek is listed among the priests and Levites who participated in the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem. This event was significant as it symbolized the restoration of the Jewish community and their commitment to the covenant with God. The inclusion of Shobek in this list highlights his role in the religious and communal life of the post-exilic Jewish society. The name itself, derived from a root meaning "to leave" or "to forsake," may carry connotations of abandonment or separation, though in this context, it is simply a personal name without additional narrative implications.
