Strong's Lexicon Pelatyahu or Pelatyah: Pelatiah Original Word: פְּלַטְיָהוּ or פְּלַטְיָה Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root פָּלַט (palat), meaning "to escape" or "to deliver," combined with יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Pelatiah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of deliverance is captured in Greek by words like σωτηρία (soteria, G4991), meaning "salvation" or "deliverance." Usage: The name Pelatiah means "Yahweh delivers" or "Yahweh rescues." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying trust in God's deliverance and protection. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were reflective of the parents' faith or circumstances surrounding the child's birth. The name Pelatiah, incorporating the divine name Yahweh, indicates a strong belief in God's power to save and deliver His people. This reflects the broader cultural context of the Israelites, who frequently experienced divine intervention and deliverance throughout their history.
