Strong's Lexicon
Yachzeyah: Jahaziah

Original Word: יַחְזְיָה
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Yachzyah
Pronunciation: yahk-zeh-YAH
Phonetic Spelling: (yakh-zeh-yaw')

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חזה (chazah), meaning "to see" or "to behold," combined with יה (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yachzeyah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the concept of God seeing or beholding is present in Greek through words like ὁράω (horao - Strong's Greek 3708), meaning "to see."

Usage: The name Yachzeyah means "Yahweh sees" or "Yahweh has beheld." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a recognition of God's omniscience and His active presence in the lives of His people.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of the parents' faith or experiences. The name Yachzeyah, emphasizing God's ability to see and know all things, would have been a reminder of divine oversight and care. This reflects the broader cultural and religious context of the Israelites, who believed in a personal and involved deity.
