Supported# Eliashib: A Biblical Name Based on the lexical data provided, אֶלְיָשִׁיב (Eliashib) is a proper noun—a personal name—that appears once in the Hebrew Bible. As a name rather than a common word with semantic range, it functions as an identifier for a specific individual rather than conveying meaning through definition in the traditional lexical sense. The single occurrence of this name in the biblical text limits what can be determined about its usage patterns or significance from lexical data alone. Names in biblical texts served to identify particular persons, and their frequency of appearance does not necessarily correlate with historical or theological importance. Without additional contextual information about which biblical passage contains this name or the role of the person bearing it, the lexical entry itself provides only confirmation of the name's existence in the Hebrew scriptural tradition.
