Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Sherebjah, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible and does not appear in the Greek New Testament. However, the role and function of Levites like Sherebjah can be compared to the Greek term "Λευίτης" (Leuites), Strong's Greek Number 3019, which refers to a Levite.

Usage: Sherebjah is a proper noun used as a masculine name in the Hebrew Bible. It refers to a specific individual who played a significant role during the time of Ezra and Nehemiah.

Context: Sherebjah is mentioned in the post-exilic period of Israel's history, specifically during the time of Ezra and Nehemiah. He is identified as a Levite who was instrumental in the religious reforms and the re-establishment of the Jewish community in Jerusalem after the Babylonian exile. Sherebjah is noted for his role in teaching the Law and leading the people in worship.

In the book of Ezra, Sherebjah is listed among the Levites who returned with Ezra from Babylon to Jerusalem (Ezra 8:18). He is described as a man of understanding, indicating his proficiency in the Law and his capability to instruct others. Sherebjah's involvement in the religious life of the community is further highlighted in Nehemiah, where he is mentioned as one of the Levites who helped explain the Law to the people during the public reading of the Torah (Nehemiah 8:7). Additionally, he participated in the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, leading the people in worship and thanksgiving (Nehemiah 12:8, 12:24).

Sherebjah's contributions were vital in the spiritual renewal of the Jewish people during this critical period of their history. His dedication to teaching and worship underscores the importance of the Levites in maintaining the religious and cultural identity of the Jewish community.
