Berean Strong's Lexicon Yachleel: Jachleel Original Word: יַחְלְאֵל Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חָלַל (chalal), meaning "to wait" or "to hope." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yachleel in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper name specific to the Hebrew text. However, the concept of hope or waiting on God is echoed in Greek terms such as ἐλπίς (elpis, Strong's G1680), meaning "hope." Usage: The name Yachleel means "God waits" or "God hopes." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a person who embodies the hope or expectation of God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names were often given to reflect the character, destiny, or divine purpose associated with an individual.
