Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Beerah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew proper noun without a direct counterpart in the Greek New Testament.

Usage: Beerah is a proper name used in the Hebrew Bible, specifically referring to a leader or prince of the tribe of Reuben. The name itself may imply a sense of burning zeal or fervor, possibly reflecting the character or the role of the individual within his tribe.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, tribal leaders like Beerah held significant authority and responsibility. The tribe of Reuben, being one of the twelve tribes of Israel, had its own leaders who were tasked with maintaining the welfare and spiritual integrity of their people. The name Beerah, with its connotations of burning or consuming, might suggest a leader with a passionate commitment to his duties.
