Strong's Lexicon Buqqiyyahu: Buqqiah Original Word: בֻּקִּיָּהוּ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root בָּקַק (baqaq), meaning "to empty" or "to pour out," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Buqqiyyahu in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew name. However, the concept of "pouring out" can be related to Greek words like ἐκχέω (ekcheo), meaning "to pour out." Usage: Buqqiyyahu means "Yahweh has emptied" or "Yahweh has poured out." It is a theophoric name, incorporating the divine name Yahweh, which was common in ancient Israelite culture to signify a relationship or attribute of God. Cultural and Historical Background: The use of theophoric names in ancient Israel was a way to express faith and identity. Names like Buqqiyyahu reflected the belief in God's active role in the lives of individuals and the nation. Such names were often given in hope or recognition of divine intervention or blessing.
