Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Mispereth, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context. However, the concept of genealogical records and the return from exile can be related to Greek terms dealing with lineage and restoration, such as γενεαλογία (genealogia, Strong's Greek 1076) for genealogy, and ἀποκατάστασις (apokatastasis, Strong's Greek 605) for restoration.

Usage: The name Mispereth appears in the context of the post-exilic return to Jerusalem, specifically in the genealogical records of those who returned from the Babylonian exile.

Context: Mispereth is mentioned in the book of Nehemiah as part of the list of the people who returned to Jerusalem and Judah from the Babylonian captivity. In Nehemiah 7:7, the name appears in the genealogical record of those who accompanied Zerubbabel. The context suggests that Mispereth was likely a family head or a notable individual among the returnees. The listing of names in Nehemiah serves to establish the continuity of the Israelite community and their re-establishment in the land of their ancestors. The inclusion of Mispereth in this list underscores the importance of each family and individual in the restoration of the Jewish community and religious life in Jerusalem.
