Strong's Lexicon Chilqiyyahu or Chilqiyyah: Hilkiah Original Word: חִלְקִיָּה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חֵלֶק (cheleq), meaning "portion" or "share," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Hilkiah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the Greek Septuagint transliterates it as Χελκίας (Chelkias). Usage: The name Hilkiah means "Yahweh is my portion" or "portion of Yahweh." It is used as a personal name for several individuals in the Old Testament, most notably a high priest during the reign of King Josiah. Cultural and Historical Background: Hilkiah is a significant figure in the history of Judah, particularly during the religious reforms of King Josiah in the late 7th century BCE. As high priest, Hilkiah played a crucial role in the discovery of the Book of the Law in the temple, which led to a national religious revival and reform. This period was marked by a return to the worship of Yahweh and the removal of idolatrous practices.
