Strong's Lexicon Yibniyyah: Yibniyyah Original Word: יִבְנִיָּה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root בָּנָה (banah), meaning "to build." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Yibniyyah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the concept of God building or establishing is present in Greek through words like οἰκοδομέω (oikodomeō), meaning "to build" or "to edify." Usage: Yibniyyah is a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, meaning "Yahweh will build" or "Yahweh builds." It reflects a common practice in Hebrew culture of incorporating the name of God (Yahweh) into personal names, signifying a relationship or covenant with God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names were often given to reflect the character, destiny, or divine purpose of an individual. The name Yibniyyah suggests a divine promise or hope that God will establish or build something significant through the person bearing the name. This reflects the broader cultural and religious context of the Israelites, who saw their identity and future as deeply intertwined with their covenant relationship with Yahweh.
