Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Geuel, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun. However, the concept of "exaltation" can be related to Greek words like ὑψόω (hypsoō), meaning "to exalt" or "to lift up." Usage: Geuel means "Exaltation of God" or "God is exalted." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the child's birth.
