◄ 4441. Malkiyyah or Malkiyahu ►
Strong's Lexicon Malkiyyah or Malkiyahu: Malkijah or Malkiah Original Word: מַלְכִּיָּה Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Malkiyah Pronunciation: mal-kee-YAH or mal-kee-YA-hoo Phonetic Spelling: (mal-kee-yaw') Definition: Malkijah or Malkiah Meaning: Malkijah Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew words מֶלֶךְ (melek), meaning "king," and יָהּ (Yah), a shortened form of Yahweh, the name of God. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Malkiyyah or Malkiyahu in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a Hebrew proper name. However, the concept of "king" is represented by the Greek word βασιλεύς (basileus, Strong's G935). Usage: The name Malkiyyah or Malkiyahu means "Yahweh is King" or "My King is Yahweh." It is used as a personal name for several individuals in the Old Testament, reflecting a theophoric element that emphasizes the sovereignty of God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes used to express theological beliefs or personal devotion. The use of theophoric names, which include the name of God, was common and served to remind the bearer and others of God's presence and authority. Malkiyyah or Malkiyahu would have been a name that signified allegiance to Yahweh as the ultimate ruler.
