Word Origin: Derived from Persian origin. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Vajezatha, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text of the Book of Esther and does not have a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament writings. Usage: The name Vajezatha appears in the context of the Book of Esther in the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify one of the sons of Haman, an antagonist in the story. Context: Vajezatha is mentioned in the Book of Esther, specifically in Esther 9:9. He is listed as one of the ten sons of Haman, the Agagite, who was an enemy of the Jews during the reign of King Ahasuerus (Xerxes I) of Persia. Haman's plot to annihilate the Jewish people was thwarted by Queen Esther and her cousin Mordecai. As a result, Haman and his ten sons, including Vajezatha, were executed. The narrative highlights the deliverance of the Jewish people and the establishment of the festival of Purim to commemorate their survival and victory over their enemies. The account of Vajezatha and his brothers serves as a reminder of the reversal of fortunes and the triumph of justice as orchestrated by divine providence.
