Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from בַּיִת (bayit, meaning "house") and עַזְמָוֶת (Azmaveth, a personal name meaning "strong unto death" or "death is strong"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for Beit Azmaveth, as it is a specific Hebrew place name without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts. However, the concept of "house" (οἶκος, oikos) and personal names may have parallels in Greek lexical studies. Usage: The term "Beit Azmaveth" is used in the context of a location or settlement in the Hebrew Bible. It is mentioned in the context of the return from the Babylonian exile and the rebuilding of Jerusalem. Context: Beit Azmaveth is referenced in the Old Testament as a location associated with the return of the exiles from Babylon. It is mentioned in the book of Nehemiah, where it is listed among the places whose inhabitants returned to Jerusalem and Judah. Specifically, Nehemiah 7:28 states, "The men of Bethel and Ai, 223; the men of Nebo, 52; the men of Magbish, 156; the men of the other Elam, 1,254; the men of Harim, 320; the men of Lod, Hadid, and Ono, 725; the men of Jericho, 345; the men of Senaah, 3,630." The mention of Beit Azmaveth in this context highlights its role as a settlement that contributed to the repopulation and restoration efforts during the post-exilic period. The name itself, "House of Azmaveth," suggests a connection to a person named Azmaveth, possibly indicating a family or clan that originally settled or owned the area.
