Strong's Lexicon Shecharyah: Shecharyah Original Word: שְׁחַרְיָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew roots שָׁכַר (shakar, meaning "to be drunk" or "intoxicated") and יָהּ (Yah, a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Shecharyah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary. However, the Greek name Zacharias (Ζαχαρίας, Strong's G2197) is a transliteration of the Hebrew Zechariah, which shares a similar meaning. Usage: The name Shecharyah can be understood to mean "Yahweh has remembered" or "Yahweh is my portion." It is a theophoric name, incorporating the divine name Yah, indicating a relationship or attribute of God. In the context of the Bible, names often reflect the character or destiny of individuals, and Shecharyah would imply a person whose life is marked by God's remembrance or provision. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names were significant and often reflected personal or familial faith in God. The inclusion of "Yah" in a name was a declaration of faith and identity, aligning the individual with the covenant community of Israel. The name Shecharyah would have been a reminder of God's faithfulness and presence in the life of the individual and their family.
