However, the concept of burden-bearing can be related to Greek terms like βάρος (baros, Strong's G922), meaning "weight" or "burden."<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The name Amashsay means "burdensome" or "the burden is lifted." It is used as a proper name for a male individual in the Hebrew Bible. The name reflects a sense of responsibility or the lifting of a burden, which can be seen in the context of the character's role or actions.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, names often carried significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of the circumstances of birth, prophetic insights, or parental hopes. The name Amashsay, with its connotations of burden and relief, might suggest a person who plays a role in carrying or alleviating burdens, either physically or spiritually. This reflects the broader cultural understanding of names as indicative of character or destiny.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>probably from the same as <a href="/hebrew/6021.htm">Amasa</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>an Isr. priest<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Amashsai (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">עֲמַשְׁסַי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (probably textual error for foregoing, Ol<sup>§ 2771</sup>, compare Thes<sup>1044</sup>);
