Strong's Lexicon Chazayah: Chazayah Original Word: חֲזָיָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חָזָה (chazah), meaning "to see" or "to behold," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Chazayah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary. However, the concept of God seeing or knowing is reflected in Greek words like ὁράω (horao - G3708), meaning "to see," and γινώσκω (ginosko - G1097), meaning "to know." Usage: Chazayah means "Yahweh has seen" or "vision of Yahweh." It is a proper name used in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a person who is under the watchful eye of God or has received a divine vision. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, names were often given to reflect a person's character, destiny, or a significant event related to their birth. The name Chazayah would have been understood as a testament to God's omniscience and His active involvement in the lives of His people. It reflects the belief in a personal God who sees and knows all things.
