However, the Greek name "Esther" (Ἐσθήρ) is used in the Septuagint and the New Testament.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Hadassah is the Hebrew name of Queen Esther, the central figure in the Book of Esther. The name means "myrtle," a plant known for its fragrance and beauty, symbolizing righteousness and divine favor. In the biblical narrative, Hadassah is the Jewish name of Esther before she becomes queen of Persia.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Jewish culture, names held significant meaning and often reflected personal characteristics or divine purposes. The myrtle plant, associated with Hadassah, was used in Jewish rituals and symbolized peace and prosperity. The account of Hadassah/Esther takes place during the Persian Empire, under King Xerxes (Ahasuerus), highlighting themes of providence, courage, and the survival of the Jewish people.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/1918.htm">hadas</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"myrtle," Esther's Jewish name<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Hadassah (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">הֲדַסָּה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>Jewish name of Esther</b></font> ( = <em>myrtle</em>, on form compare Sta<sup>§ 199 a</sup>) <a href="/interlinear/esther/2-7.htm">Esther 2:7</a> (compare <font class="hebrew2">אֶסְתֵּר</font>). <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Hadassah <p>Feminine of <a href="/hebrew/1918.htm">hadac</a>; Hadassah (or Esther) -- Hadassah. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/1918.htm">hadac</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>הֲדַסָּ֗ה הדסה hă·ḏas·sāh hadasSah hăḏassāh<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/esther/2-7.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Esther 2:7</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/esther/2.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">אֹמֵ֜ן אֶת־ <b> הֲדַסָּ֗ה </b> הִ֤יא אֶסְתֵּר֙</span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/esther/2.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> He was bringing <span class="itali">up Hadassah,</span> that is Esther,<br><a href="/kjvs/esther/2.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> And he brought up <span class="itali">Hadassah,</span> that [is], Esther,<br><a href="/interlinear/esther/2-7.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> become was bringing <span class="itali">Hadassah</span> that is Esther<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_1919.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_1919.htm">Strong's Hebrew 1919<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/hadassah_1919.htm">hă·ḏas·sāh — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/1918.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="1918"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="1918" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/1920.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="1920"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="1920" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
