However, the Greek Septuagint transliterates Hebrew names into Greek characters, which may be referenced in studies of the Septuagint.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The name Ahira means "brother of evil" or "brother is evil." It is used as a proper name for a specific individual in the Hebrew Bible. Ahira is noted as a leader of the tribe of Naphtali during the wilderness wanderings of the Israelites.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the context of ancient Israel, names often held significant meanings and were sometimes reflective of personal characteristics, familial relationships, or prophetic insights. Ahira, as a leader of the tribe of Naphtali, would have been responsible for representing his tribe during the encampments and journeys of the Israelites as they traveled from Egypt to the Promised Land. The tribe of Naphtali was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descended from Naphtali, the sixth son of Jacob and Bilhah.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/251.htm">ach</a> and <a href="/hebrew/7451b.htm">ra</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"my brother is evil," a leader of Naphtali<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Ahira (5).<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">אֲחִירַע</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<em>my brother is evil</em>) a chief of Naphtali <a href="/interlinear/numbers/1-15.htm">Numbers 1:15</a>;
