447. Eliel
Strong's Lexicon
Eliel: Eliel

Original Word: אֱלִיאֵל
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Eliel
Pronunciation: eh-lee-EL
Phonetic Spelling: (el-ee-ale')
Definition: Eliel
Meaning: Eliel

Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: אֵל (El, meaning "God") and יָאֵל (yael, meaning "God is God" or "God is mighty").

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Eliel in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of God's might and sovereignty is reflected in Greek terms like Θεός (Theos, Strong's G2316) for God.

Usage: The name Eliel means "My God is God" or "God is mighty." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a recognition of God's supreme power and authority. The name reflects a deep reverence and acknowledgment of God's sovereignty.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, names were often given to reflect personal faith, divine attributes, or significant events. The name Eliel, incorporating the name of God (El), would have been a testament to the individual's or family's devotion to Yahweh. It was common for names to serve as a reminder of God's presence and power in the lives of the Israelites.
