Strong's Lexicon Menashsheh: Manasseh Original Word: מְנַשֶּׁה Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Mnashsheh Pronunciation: meh-nah-SHEH Phonetic Spelling: (men-ash-sheh') Definition: Manasseh Meaning: Menashsheh Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root נָשָׁה (nashah), meaning "to forget" or "to cause to forget." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3128: Μανασσῆς (Manasses) - Used in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 1:10, referring to King Manasseh in the genealogy of Jesus. Usage: The name "Manasseh" is traditionally understood to mean "causing to forget," reflecting Joseph's statement in Genesis 41:51, "For God has made me forget all my trouble and all my father’s household." In the Bible, Manasseh is primarily known as the firstborn son of Joseph and Asenath, and as one of the tribes of Israel. The name is also associated with King Manasseh of Judah, known for his long reign and significant religious reforms. Cultural and Historical Background: Manasseh, as a tribe, was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descending from Joseph's son. The tribe was divided into two half-tribes, with one settling east of the Jordan River and the other in the land of Canaan. This division played a significant role in the tribal dynamics and territorial disputes in ancient Israel. King Manasseh of Judah, a descendant of the tribe, is noted for his initial idolatry and subsequent repentance, as recorded in 2 Chronicles 33.
