Strong's Lexicon Elichoreph: Elichoreph Original Word: אֱלִיחֹרֶף Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words אֵל (El, meaning "God") and חֹרֶף (choreph, meaning "harvest" or "autumn"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the name Elichoreph, as it is a unique Hebrew proper noun. However, the concept of God as provider and sustainer is echoed in various Greek terms related to God's provision, such as "θεός" (theos, meaning "God") and "καρπός" (karpos, meaning "fruit" or "harvest"). Usage: Elichoreph is a proper name in the Hebrew Bible, meaning "God of harvest" or "God of autumn." It is used to identify a specific individual in the context of the Israelite monarchy. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often held significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the child's birth. The name Elichoreph, combining elements of divinity and the harvest season, may suggest a recognition of God's provision and sustenance. The harvest was a critical time in agrarian societies, and associating God with this season underscores His role as provider.
