Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name זִיזָא (Ziza), as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew genealogical context and does not have a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament. Usage: The name Ziza appears in the context of genealogical records within the Old Testament. Context: Ziza is mentioned in the genealogical records of the tribe of Simeon. Specifically, Ziza is identified as a son of Shiphi, who is a descendant of Simeon. The name appears in 1 Chronicles 4:37, where Ziza is listed among the leaders of the Simeonite families during the reign of King Hezekiah of Judah. The passage highlights the expansion and settlement activities of the Simeonites, who sought new territories due to their increasing population. Ziza, along with other leaders, played a role in these endeavors, which included successful military campaigns against the Hamites and Meunites, allowing the Simeonites to occupy their land. 1 Chronicles 4:37 (BSB): "Ziza son of Shiphi, son of Allon, son of Jedaiah, son of Shimri, son of Shemaiah." The mention of Ziza in this context underscores the importance of family lineage and leadership within the tribal structure of ancient Israel. The genealogical records serve not only as historical documentation but also as a testament to the fulfillment of God's promises to the tribes of Israel regarding their growth and inheritance of the land.
