Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Jozacar, as it is a unique Hebrew proper noun without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament.

Usage: Jozacar is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible.

Context: Jozacar is mentioned in the context of the historical narrative of the kings of Israel. He is identified as one of the servants of King Joash of Judah. In 2 Kings 12:21 (BSB), Jozacar, along with another servant named Jehozabad, conspired against and assassinated King Joash. This act of regicide was significant in the history of Judah, as it led to the ascension of Amaziah, the son of Joash, to the throne. The account highlights the political instability and internal strife within the kingdom during this period. The name Jozacar, meaning "Yahweh remembers," may imply a divine acknowledgment or intervention in the events surrounding the assassination.
