Berean Strong's Lexicon Yoyada: Jehoiada Original Word: יוֹיָדָע Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew roots יָהּ (Yah, a shortened form of Yahweh) and יָדַע (yada, meaning "to know"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Jehoiada in the Septuagint, but the name is transliterated in Greek texts as Ιωδαε (Iodae). Usage: The name Yoyada means "Yahweh knows" or "the LORD knows." It is used as a proper name for several individuals in the Hebrew Bible, most notably a high priest during the reign of King Joash of Judah. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often held significant meaning and were reflective of the individual's character or God's relationship with them. Jehoiada, as a high priest, played a crucial role in the religious and political life of Judah. He was instrumental in the overthrow of Queen Athaliah and the restoration of the Davidic line through King Joash. His actions were pivotal in maintaining the worship of Yahweh and the stability of the kingdom. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originthe same as Yehoyada, q.v.
