Berean Strong's Lexicon Yehoaddah: Yehoaddah Original Word: יהועדה Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew elements: יהו (Yeho), a theophoric prefix referring to Yahweh, and עדה (adah), meaning "adorn" or "assembly." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yehoaddah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew name. However, Greek names with the theophoric element "Theo" (meaning God) can be seen as culturally analogous. Usage: The name Yehoaddah can be understood to mean "Yahweh has adorned" or "Yahweh's assembly." It is a theophoric name, indicating a connection to the divine, which was common in Hebrew culture to reflect faith and identity. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes prophetic or reflective of the parents' hopes for their child. The use of the theophoric element "Yeho" in names was a way to honor Yahweh and acknowledge His sovereignty and presence in the lives of the people. Names like Yehoaddah would have been a reminder of the covenant relationship between Yahweh and Israel.
