Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name שַׁרְאֶצֶר (Sharetser), as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text and does not have a Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament. Usage: The name Sharetser appears in the Old Testament as a personal name associated with two individuals: • A son of Sennacherib, king of Assyria. • An envoy sent by the people of Bethel to inquire of the LORD. Context: • Sharetser, Son of Sennacherib: Sharetser is mentioned in 2 Kings 19:37 and Isaiah 37:38 as one of the sons of Sennacherib, the Assyrian king. After Sennacherib's unsuccessful campaign against Jerusalem, he returned to Nineveh, where he was assassinated by his sons Adrammelech and Sharetser while worshiping in the temple of his god Nisroch. This act of patricide led to the ascension of Esarhaddon, another son of Sennacherib, to the throne. • Sharetser, Envoy from Bethel: In Zechariah 7:2, Sharetser is mentioned as one of the men sent by the people of Bethel to seek the favor of the LORD. They inquired about continuing the fasts commemorating the destruction of Jerusalem, as the temple was being rebuilt. This Sharetser is noted for his role in seeking divine guidance during a pivotal moment in Israel's post-exilic history.
