What Original Readers Understood
Supported# Zechariah (H2148D) Based on the lexical data provided, זְכַרְיָהוּ (Zechariah) is a proper name appearing once in the Hebrew Bible. The transliteration "ze.khar.yah" reflects the Hebrew structure, where the name compounds elements meaning "remembered" or "mindful" with a reference to God (yah). As a proper noun, this entry documents a single occurrence of this personal name in biblical text. The minimal frequency data—just one attestation—limits what can be concluded about this particular name form's distribution or significance within the biblical corpus. However, the lexicon's inclusion of the name indicates it represents a distinct form worthy of individual documentation, suggesting either a unique spelling variant or a specific biblical figure that lexicographers distinguished for reference purposes. Without additional context about which biblical figure or passage contains this occurrence, the entry serves primarily as a reference point for scholars tracking Hebrew onomastics and proper name variants.
