# Ὡσηέ (Hōsēe) - Hosea Ὡσηέ is the Greek transliteration of a Hebrew proper name appearing three times in the Bible. As a proper noun, it functions as a personal identifier rather than a word with semantic range or multiple meanings. The name designates a specific historical figure in biblical tradition. The limited occurrence of this term (only three biblical instances) suggests it appears in contexts where the figure is directly referenced or identified. As a proper name, its significance derives not from linguistic meaning but from the identity and role of the person it designates within biblical narrative and religious tradition. Without additional lexical data on the specific biblical passages where these three occurrences appear, the precise contexts and their relative significance cannot be determined from this entry alone. The information provided establishes only that this Greek form represents a transliterated Hebrew name appearing minimally in the biblical text.
