Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: The origin of the name "Bidkar" is uncertain, but it is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name "Bidkar," as it is a unique proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible and does not appear in the Greek New Testament.

Usage: The name "Bidkar" appears in the context of the Old Testament, specifically in the narrative concerning the reign of Jehu, king of Israel.

Context: Bidkar is mentioned in 2 Kings 9:25. He is identified as a captain in the army of Jehu, who was anointed king of Israel by the prophet Elisha. In the biblical account, Jehu commands Bidkar to throw the body of Joram, the son of Ahab, into the field of Naboth the Jezreelite, fulfilling the prophecy spoken by Elijah. This act is part of Jehu's divinely sanctioned purge of the house of Ahab. The specific verse reads: "Jehu said to Bidkar his officer, 'Pick him up and throw him on the plot of ground belonging to Naboth the Jezreelite. For remember how you and I were riding together behind Ahab his father when the LORD pronounced this oracle against him.'" (2 Kings 9:25, BSB).
