Strong's Lexicon Partsi: Parzite Original Word: פַרְצִי Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּרַץ (parats), meaning "to break through" or "to burst forth." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "Partsi," the lineage of Perez is referenced in the genealogies of Jesus in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 1:3 and Luke 3:33, where the Greek term "Φαρές" (Phares) is used. Usage: The term "Partsi" refers to a descendant of Perez, the son of Judah and Tamar. Perez is a significant figure in the lineage of the tribe of Judah, and his descendants are often referred to as the Parzites. The name itself carries the connotation of "breaking through" or "breach," reflecting the circumstances of Perez's birth as recorded in Genesis 38:29. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, genealogies were crucial for establishing tribal identities and inheritance rights. The tribe of Judah, from which the Parzites descended, held a prominent position among the tribes of Israel. Perez's lineage is particularly significant as it is part of the genealogy of King David and, ultimately, Jesus Christ, as outlined in the Gospels. The Parzites, therefore, are part of a broader narrative that underscores God's providential plan through the tribe of Judah.
