Strong's Lexicon Yishshiyyah or Yishshiyyahu: Isshiah or Isshijah Original Word: יִשִּׁיָּה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יֵשׁ (yesh), meaning "there is" or "exists," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yishshiyyah or Yishshiyyahu in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, names with the theophoric element "Yah" might be translated or transliterated differently in the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible. Usage: The name Yishshiyyah or Yishshiyyahu means "Yahweh exists" or "Yahweh is." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a recognition of God's presence and existence. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the child's birth. The inclusion of "Yah" in the name indicates a theophoric element, common in Hebrew names, which reflects the religious devotion of the Israelites to Yahweh. Names like Yishshiyyah would have been a testament to the individual's or family's faith in God's enduring presence.
