Strong's Lexicon Yehukal: Jehucal Original Word: יְהוּכַל Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Yhuwkal Pronunciation: yeh-hoo-KAL Phonetic Spelling: (yeh-hoo-kal') Definition: Jehukal Meaning: The name Jehukal means "Yahweh is able" or "Yahweh prevails." Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root יָכֹל (yakol), meaning "to be able" or "to prevail." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the name Jehukal, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text. However, the concept of divine ability or prevailing, as implied by the root יָכֹל (yakol), can be related to Greek terms expressing power or ability, such as δύναμις (dynamis, Strong's Greek 1411), meaning "power" or "ability." Usage: Jehukal is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Jehukal is a biblical figure mentioned in the Book of Jeremiah. He was a son of Shelemiah and served as an official in the court of King Zedekiah of Judah. Jehukal is noted for being sent by King Zedekiah, along with the priest Zephaniah, to the prophet Jeremiah to request his prayers for the kingdom during the Babylonian siege of Jerusalem. This event is recorded in Jeremiah 37:3: "Yet King Zedekiah sent Jehukal son of Shelemiah and the priest Zephaniah son of Maaseiah to Jeremiah the prophet with this message: 'Please pray to the LORD our God for us.'" Jehukal is also mentioned in Jeremiah 38:1, where he is one of the officials who heard Jeremiah's prophecy of the fall of Jerusalem and subsequently sought to have Jeremiah put to death for demoralizing the troops and the people.
