# Zechariah (H2148E) The Hebrew name זְכַרְיָהוּ (Zechariah) appears once in the biblical text according to the lexicon data provided. As a proper noun, it functions as a personal name rather than a common word with semantic range. The name itself likely derives from elements meaning "to remember" (zakar) and "God" (Yah), suggesting a meaning along the lines of "God remembers," though the lexicon data does not explicitly confirm this etymology. With only a single occurrence in the biblical corpus, this particular spelling or form of the name has minimal textual distribution. This rarity distinguishes it from other more frequently attested biblical names, making it difficult to establish patterns of usage or contextual significance based solely on the lexicon entry provided. The single attestation limits what can be determined about its narrative or theological importance within scripture.
