◄ 5907. Akbor ►
Strong's Lexicon Akbor: Akbor Original Word: עַכְבּוֹר Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: `Akbowr Pronunciation: ak-BOHR Phonetic Spelling: (ak-bore') Definition: Akbor Meaning: Akbor Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root עַכְבָּר (akbar), meaning "mouse" or "rodent." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the name Akbor in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper noun specific to Hebrew texts. Usage: The name Akbor is used in the Hebrew Bible as a personal name. It is associated with two individuals: one is a descendant of Esau, and the other is a servant of King Josiah. The name itself, meaning "mouse," may imply smallness or insignificance, which could reflect the cultural view of the animal. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, names often carried significant meanings and could reflect characteristics or hoped-for traits. The use of animal names was not uncommon, and the mouse, while considered small and perhaps insignificant, was a creature known for its ability to survive and adapt. The name Akbor, therefore, might have been chosen to convey humility or resilience.
