Strong's Lexicon Malkiel: Malkiel Original Word: מַלְכִּיאֵל Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Malkiy'el Pronunciation: mal-kee-EL Phonetic Spelling: (mal-kee-ale') Definition: Malkiel Meaning: "God is my king" or "King of God." Word Origin: Derived from two Hebrew words: מֶלֶךְ (melek, meaning "king") and אֵל (El, meaning "God"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Greek entries for Malkiel, as it is a Hebrew proper noun specific to the Old Testament genealogies. However, the concept of God as king is echoed in various Greek terms used in the New Testament, such as βασιλεύς (basileus, meaning "king") and θεός (theos, meaning "God"). Usage: Malkiel is used as a proper noun, specifically as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Malkiel is a biblical figure mentioned in the genealogies of the tribes of Israel. He is identified as the son of Beriah and a descendant of Asher, one of the twelve sons of Jacob. Malkiel's lineage is noted in the context of the tribal organization and inheritance of the Israelites. His name, meaning "God is my king," reflects a theophoric element common in Hebrew names, indicating a relationship or attribute associated with God. Malkiel's mention in the genealogical records underscores the importance of family lineage and tribal affiliation in the narrative of the Israelite people. Biblical Reference: • Numbers 26:45: "These are the descendants of Beriah: the Heberite clan from Heber, and the Malkielite clan from Malkiel." Malkiel's inclusion in the genealogical lists serves to establish the continuity and identity of the tribe of Asher, contributing to the broader narrative of the Israelite settlement in the Promised Land. The genealogies in which Malkiel appears are part of the larger framework of the Pentateuch, which details the origins and development of the Israelite nation.
