# Zechariah: A Single Biblical Reference The Hebrew lemma זְכַרְיָהוּ (Zechariah) appears exactly once in the biblical text according to this lexicon entry. The name itself is a proper noun—a personal name rather than a common word with variable meanings. Its transliteration, ze.khar.yah, reflects the standard Hebrew naming convention, though the entry does not provide etymological breakdown or the name's constituent parts. With only one occurrence in the Bible, this particular form offers limited opportunity to establish patterns of usage or contextual range. The lexicon data does not indicate which biblical book contains this single reference, nor does it provide the verse location or surrounding context. Without access to that information, we cannot determine the identity of this specific individual named Zechariah or their role in the biblical narrative. It should be noted that "Zechariah" was a common Hebrew name throughout biblical history, borne by multiple figures including a prophet and various officials and priests. However, this lexicon entry—restricted to a single occurrence of this exact Hebrew form—represents only one instance, and cannot be generalized to explain the broader significance of the name across Scripture without additional textual data.
