Strong's Lexicon Konanyahu: Konaniah, Conaniah Original Word: כּוֹנַנְיָהוּ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root כּוּן (kun), meaning "to establish" or "to prepare," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Konanyahu in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of being "established by God" can be related to Greek terms like θεμελιόω (themelioō - G2311), meaning "to lay a foundation" or "to establish." Usage: The name Konanyahu means "Yahweh has established" or "Yahweh has prepared." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a person whose life or role is established by God. 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 Konanyahu indicates a theophoric element, suggesting a strong connection to the worship and acknowledgment of Yahweh, the God of Israel. This reflects the cultural importance of divine acknowledgment in personal identity and societal roles.
