Strong's Lexicon Yakini: Jachin Original Word: יָכִיִנִי Word Origin: Derived from the root יָכִין (yakin), meaning "he will establish" or "he will prepare." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the proper noun "Jachin" as it is a specific Hebrew name. However, the concept of establishment and stability can be related to Greek words like στηρίζω (stērizō - Strong's Greek 4741), meaning "to establish" or "to strengthen." Usage: The name "Jachin" is used in the Bible primarily as a proper noun. It is the name of one of the two bronze pillars erected in front of Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem. The name signifies stability and establishment, reflecting the pillar's symbolic role in the temple's architecture. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, pillars were often used as symbols of strength and stability. The two pillars, Jachin and Boaz, stood at the entrance of Solomon's Temple, which was the center of worship and the dwelling place of God's presence among the Israelites. The name Jachin, meaning "he will establish," underscores the divine promise of stability and permanence for the temple and, by extension, for the people of Israel.
