# Azgad: A Biblical Proper Name Azgad (עַזְגָּד) appears three times in the Hebrew Bible as a proper noun, designating a specific individual or family group. Based solely on its classification as a lemma with a fixed transliteration and consistent short definition across all occurrences, this term functions as a personal name rather than a common word with semantic variation. The limited frequency of Azgad's appearance—only three biblical occurrences—suggests it refers to a particular historical figure or lineage of modest prominence in biblical narratives. Without additional lexical data beyond the transliteration and definition provided, the specific identity, genealogy, or historical context of Azgad cannot be determined from this entry alone. The name's consistency across all three biblical mentions indicates it represents the same entity throughout rather than multiple unrelated individuals sharing an identical designation. This lexical entry demonstrates how biblical proper names are catalogued in Hebrew concordances: they receive lemma status despite their grammatical distinctness from common nouns and verbs. Azgad's inclusion in systematic biblical lexicons underscores that biblical analysis requires attention to all nomenclatural elements, not merely vocabulary of semantic content.
