Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Makir, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew Bible and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the New Testament. Usage: The name Makir appears in the Hebrew Bible as a significant figure in the lineage of the tribe of Manasseh. He is noted for his descendants, who played a crucial role in the settlement and military activities of the Israelites. Context: Makir is a prominent figure in the Old Testament, known as the firstborn son of Manasseh, the son of Joseph. His lineage is significant in the tribal history of Israel. Makir's descendants, known as the "Machirites," were influential in the conquest and settlement of the land east of the Jordan River. The Bible records that the Machirites were skilled warriors and played a vital role in the military campaigns of Israel. In the Book of Numbers, Makir is mentioned as the father of Gilead, and his descendants are associated with the region of Gilead, which became a significant area for the tribe of Manasseh. The Machirites were granted land in this region due to their prowess and contributions to the Israelite conquests. Makir's name is also mentioned in the context of the inheritance laws in the Book of Numbers, where the daughters of Zelophehad, who were descendants of Makir, successfully petitioned for the right to inherit their father's property, setting a precedent for inheritance rights for women in Israel. In the Berean Standard Bible, Makir is referenced in several passages, including Genesis 50:23, Numbers 26:29, and Joshua 17:1. These references highlight his importance in the tribal structure and his lasting legacy within the nation of Israel. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Origin from makar Definition two Isr.
