Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׂכַר (sakar), which means "to hire" or "to reward." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun Sakar in the Strong's Concordance, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a corresponding Greek translation in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. However, the concept of reward or recompense, related to the root of Sakar, can be found in Greek terms such as μισθός (misthos • Strong's Greek 3408), which means "wages" or "reward." Usage: The name Sakar appears in genealogical contexts within the Old Testament, specifically in the listing of descendants. Context: • Sakar is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Asher. In 1 Chronicles 7:36, Sakar is listed as one of the sons of Japhlet, who is a descendant of Asher, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The genealogies in Chronicles serve to establish the tribal and familial lines of the Israelites, emphasizing the continuity and heritage of God's chosen people. The name Sakar, like many biblical names, may carry a significance related to its root meaning, suggesting themes of reward or recompense, although the text does not provide specific details about Sakar's life or deeds.
