Strong's Lexicon Yitschar: Oil Original Word: יִצְחַר Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Yitschar Pronunciation: yits-khar' Phonetic Spelling: (yits-khar') Definition: Jitschar Meaning: Jitschar is a proper noun referring to a personal name, meaning "shining" or "oil." Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root צָהַר (tsahar), meaning "to glisten" or "to shine." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the proper noun יִצְחַר (Jitschar) in the Strong's Greek concordance, as it is a specific Hebrew name without a direct Greek counterpart. However, the concept of "oil" or "anointing" can be related to Greek terms such as χρίσμα (chrisma, Strong's Greek 5545) and ἔλαιον (elaion, Strong's Greek 1637), which refer to anointing and oil, respectively. Usage: The name Jitschar appears in the context of genealogies within the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify a specific individual within the lineage of Levi. Context: • Jitschar is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Levi. He is identified as a son of Kohath, who was one of the sons of Levi. This places Jitschar within the Levitical lineage, which is significant for the roles and responsibilities assigned to the Levites in the religious and ceremonial life of Israel. • In the Berean Standard Bible, Jitschar is referenced in passages that outline the descendants of Levi, emphasizing the importance of lineage and heritage in the context of Israel's priestly and Levitical duties. The name is found in genealogical lists that serve to establish the legitimacy and continuity of the Levitical priesthood. • The name Jitschar, meaning "shining" or "oil," may symbolically reflect the role of the Levites in maintaining the spiritual "light" and "anointing" within the community of Israel, as oil was commonly used for anointing and as a source of light in ancient times.
