Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Kelal, as it is a specific proper noun unique to the Hebrew text and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament.

Usage: The name Kelal appears in the context of the post-exilic period, specifically among those who returned from the Babylonian exile.

Context: Kelal is a proper noun found in the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Ezra. The name is associated with one of the individuals who returned to Jerusalem and Judah from the Babylonian captivity. In Ezra 10:35, Kelal is listed among the descendants of the priests who had taken foreign wives, an action contrary to the Mosaic Law, which led to a significant reform under Ezra's leadership. The context of this passage highlights the efforts to restore religious purity and adherence to the Law after the return from exile.

The mention of Kelal in this context underscores the challenges faced by the returning exiles in re-establishing their identity and religious practices. The narrative in Ezra emphasizes the importance of covenant faithfulness and the community's commitment to separate themselves from foreign influences that could lead them away from their covenant with God.
