Original Word: יִזְרָח
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: Yizrach
Pronunciation: yiz-RAKH
Phonetic Spelling: (yiz-rawkh')
Definition: Yizrach
Meaning: a Jizrach

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root זָרַח (zarach), meaning "to rise" or "to shine."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of rising or shining is mirrored in the Greek New Testament with words like ἀνατέλλω (anatellō - Strong's Greek 393), meaning "to rise" or "to shine," often used in the context of the sun or light.

Usage: The name Yizrach is not directly found in the Hebrew Bible as a standalone name. However, it is related to the root זָרַח (zarach), which conveys the idea of shining or rising, often used in the context of the sun rising or shining. This root is associated with the concept of light and new beginnings.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names were often given with significant meanings, reflecting characteristics, hopes, or divine attributes. The root זָרַח (zarach) is used in various contexts in the Hebrew Bible to describe the rising of the sun, symbolizing new beginnings, hope, and divine intervention. The imagery of light and rising is prevalent in biblical literature, often symbolizing God's presence, guidance, and the dispelling of darkness.
