Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H5809 (עָזוּר, Azur): A name meaning "helper," found in the Old Testament, though not directly linked to the Azor in Matthew's genealogy.

Usage: Azor is a genealogical name found in the New Testament, specifically in the genealogy of Jesus Christ as recorded in the Gospel of Matthew. It is used to trace the lineage of Jesus, emphasizing His rightful place in the line of David and Abraham, fulfilling Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah's descent.

Cultural and Historical Background: In Jewish culture, genealogies were crucial for establishing identity, inheritance rights, and fulfilling prophecies. The genealogy in Matthew serves to connect Jesus to the promises made to Abraham and David, underscoring His role as the Messiah. Azor, as part of this lineage, represents a link in the chain of God's redemptive plan through history.
