Strong's Lexicon Neriyyah or Neriyyahu: Neriah Original Word: נֵרִיָּה / נֵרִיָּהוּ Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: נֵר (ner) meaning "lamp" or "light" and יָהּ (Yah) a shortened form of יְהוָה (Yahweh), the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Neriah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of "light" is often represented by the Greek word φῶς (phos), Strong's Greek #5457. Usage: The name Neriah means "Lamp of Yah" or "Light of the LORD." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a person who is a light or beacon under the guidance of Yahweh. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of the parents' faith or aspirations for their child. The name Neriah reflects a deep connection to God, suggesting that the bearer of the name was seen as someone who would shine forth God's light. This is consistent with the biblical theme of light as a symbol of divine presence and guidance.
