Strong's Lexicon Bikri: Bikri Original Word: בִּכְרִי Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Bikriy Pronunciation: bik-REE Phonetic Spelling: (bik-ree') Definition: Bikri Meaning: Bikri is a proper noun used as a patronymic designation, meaning "a descendant of Becher." Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root בָּכַר (bakar), meaning "firstborn" or "young camel." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Bikri, as it is a specific proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. However, the concept of rebellion and leadership challenges can be thematically linked to various Greek terms related to leadership and conflict. Usage: The term "Bikri" is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a specific individual, Sheba son of Bichri, who led a rebellion against King David. Context: Bikri is a patronymic name found in the Old Testament, specifically in the context of the narrative involving Sheba, the son of Bichri. Sheba is noted for his insurrection against King David, as recorded in 2 Samuel 20. The rebellion of Sheba, a Benjamite, is significant as it highlights the ongoing tribal tensions and challenges to David's rule following the Absalom rebellion. Sheba's revolt is quelled when Joab, David's military commander, pursues him to the city of Abel Beth Maacah. The inhabitants of the city, seeking to avoid destruction, behead Sheba and throw his head over the wall to Joab, thus ending the rebellion. The account of Sheba son of Bichri underscores the themes of loyalty, leadership, and the consequences of rebellion within the narrative of David's kingship.
