Strong's Lexicon Tebalyahu: Tebaliah Original Word: טְבַלְיָהוּ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root טבל (taval), meaning "to dip" or "immerse," combined with יָהוּ (Yahu), a theophoric element referring to Yahweh. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Tebalyahu in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a unique Hebrew name. However, the concept of immersion is related to the Greek word βαπτίζω (baptizō), Strong's Greek #907, which means "to baptize" or "to immerse." Usage: Tebalyahu means "Yahweh has immersed" or "Yahweh has baptized." It is a theophoric name, indicating a relationship or action associated with Yahweh. The name suggests a divine act of immersion or cleansing, possibly reflecting a spiritual or ritual significance. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of the parents' faith or experiences. The use of the theophoric element "Yahu" in names was common, reflecting the centrality of Yahweh in the life and identity of the Israelites. Immersion or washing was a common ritual practice in ancient Israel, symbolizing purification and consecration.
