Strong's Lexicon Yehoaddin or Yehoaddan: Yehoaddin or Yehoaddan Original Word: יְהוֹעַדִּין Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew elements: יהו (Yahu, a form of Yahweh, the name of God) and עדין (adin, meaning "delight" or "pleasure"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for this specific Hebrew name in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun unique to the Hebrew text. Usage: The name Yehoaddin or Yehoaddan means "Yahweh delights" or "Yahweh is pleasure." It is used as a proper name for a female figure in the Hebrew Bible. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, names often held significant meaning and were sometimes reflective of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the birth of the child. The inclusion of the divine name "Yahu" in Yehoaddin or Yehoaddan indicates a theophoric element, suggesting a connection to or reverence for Yahweh. This reflects the cultural practice of invoking God's name as part of personal identity.
