Strong's Lexicon
Rechabyah or Rechabyahu: Rechabiah

Original Word: רְכַבְיָה
Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine
Transliteration: Rechabyah or Rechabyahu
Pronunciation: reh-khav-YAH
Phonetic Spelling: (rekh-ab-yaw')
Definition: Rechabiah
Meaning: Rechabjah

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew roots רָכַב (rakav, meaning "to ride") and יָהּ (Yah, a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God).

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Rechabyah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of divine guidance and protection can be related to Greek terms like ἄγγελος (angelos, meaning "messenger" or "angel") which often denotes divine intervention.

Usage: The name Rechabyah means "Yahweh has ridden" or "Yahweh is my rider." It is used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, signifying a relationship with God characterized by divine guidance and support.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, names often reflected personal faith, divine attributes, or significant events. The name Rechabyah, incorporating the divine name Yah, suggests a family with a strong religious identity and a belief in God's active role in their lives. The imagery of God as a rider conveys strength, protection, and leadership, which were highly valued traits in the patriarchal society of ancient Israel.
