However, the concept of temple service and the role of Levites can be related to Greek terms like "λειτουργία" (leitourgia), meaning service or ministry, which appears in the New Testament.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>Zetham is a personal name found in the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify a specific individual, a Levite, who served in the temple during the reign of King David. The name itself may imply a connection to the olive tree, which is significant in biblical symbolism for peace, prosperity, and the presence of the Holy Spirit.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, the Levites were a tribe set apart for religious duties and temple service. During King David's reign, the organization of temple service was a significant task, and individuals like Zetham played a role in maintaining the worship and rituals that were central to Israelite religious life. The olive tree, potentially alluded to in Zetham's name, was a vital part of the agrarian society, providing oil for anointing, lighting, and cooking.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain derivation<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a Levite<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Zetham (2).<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">זֵתָם</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (sub <font class="hebrew2">זית</font> in Thes, = foregoing) — a Levite (Gershonite) <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/23-8.htm">1 Chronicles 23:8</a>, apparently son of <font class="hebrew2">לַעְדָּן</font> and brother of <font class="hebrew2">יְחִיאֵל</font> and <font class="hebrew2">יוֺאֵל</font>; <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/26-22.htm">1 Chronicles 26:22</a> apparently grandson of <font class="hebrew2">לַעְדָּן</font>, and son of <font class="hebrew2">יְחִיאֵלִי</font> (expressly called brother of <font class="hebrew2">יוֺאֵל</font>); <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ζεθομ</font>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ζοθομ</font>, <font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font><sup>L</sup> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ζηθαν</font>. <p><font class="hebrew2">זָךְ</font>, <font class="hebrew2">זַךְ</font>, see below <font class="hebrew2">זכך</font>. below<p> <font class="hebrew2">זֵתָם</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>a Levite</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/23-8.htm">1 Chronicles 23:8</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/26-28.htm">1 Chronicles 26:28</a>. <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>Zetham <p>Apparently a variation for <a href="/hebrew/2133.htm">Zeythan</a>; Zetham, an &?
