Strong's Lexicon Beelyada: Beelyada Original Word: בְּעֶלְיָדָע Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words בַּעַל (ba'al, meaning "lord" or "master") and יָדַע (yada, meaning "to know"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Beelyada in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the concept of divine knowledge can be related to Greek words like γνῶσις (gnosis, Strong's Greek 1108), meaning "knowledge." Usage: The name Beelyada can be understood to mean "The Lord knows" or "Master of knowledge." It is a proper name used for a male individual in the Hebrew Bible. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, names often held significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the child's birth. The use of "ba'al" in names was not uncommon, as it originally meant "lord" or "master" before becoming associated with Canaanite deities. The element "yada" emphasizes knowledge or awareness, suggesting a divine acknowledgment or understanding.
