Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Shearyah, the concept of a "remnant" is captured in the Greek word λείμμα (leimma), Strong's Greek #3005, used in Romans 11:5.

Usage: The name Shearyah can be understood to mean "remnant of Yah" or "Yahweh has left a remnant." It is a proper name used for individuals in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a connection to the divine and a sense of preservation or survival through God's intervention.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were reflective of the individual's identity or destiny. The concept of a "remnant" is a recurring theme in the Hebrew Scriptures, often referring to a faithful group preserved by God amidst judgment or calamity. This reflects the belief in God's sovereignty and faithfulness to His covenant people.
