Strong's Lexicon Qetsiah: Keturah Original Word: קְצִיעָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root קָצַע (qatsa), meaning "to scrape off" or "to cut off," often associated with the aromatic bark of the cassia plant. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Qetsiah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a unique Hebrew proper noun. Usage: Qetsiah is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of one of Job's daughters, born to him after his restoration. The name is associated with the aromatic spice cassia, which is similar to cinnamon and was highly valued in ancient times. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names often held significant meanings and were sometimes indicative of circumstances surrounding a person's birth or life. Cassia, the spice associated with Qetsiah, was a valuable commodity in the ancient Near East, used in perfumes and anointing oils. The use of such a name for Job's daughter may reflect the renewed prosperity and blessing upon Job's family after his trials.
