Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "Yitshari" as it is a specific Hebrew genealogical term. However, related Greek terms might include those associated with the Levites or priestly service, such as "Λευίτης" (Leuites - G3019) for Levite.

Usage: The term "Yitshari" refers to a descendant or member of the family of Izhar, who was a son of Kohath, the son of Levi. The Izharites were a Levitical family, and the term is used to denote their lineage and association with the tribe of Levi, specifically through Izhar.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, the Levites were a tribe set apart for religious duties and service in the Tabernacle and later the Temple. The Izharites, as part of the Kohathite division of the Levites, had specific roles in the care and transportation of the sacred objects of the Tabernacle. This lineage highlights the importance of family heritage and the division of responsibilities among the Levites, which was crucial for maintaining the religious practices and rituals of Israel.
