His name appears in the Old Testament, specifically in the First Book of Chronicles. The name "Hizki" is derived from the Hebrew root "חָזַק" (chazaq), meaning "strong" or "mighty," which reflects the common practice of Hebrew names bearing significant meanings related to character or divine attributes.<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>Hizki is mentioned in <a href="/1_chronicles/5-24.htm">1 Chronicles 5:24</a>, which provides a genealogical record of the descendants of the tribe of Gad. The verse states:<br><br>"These were the heads of their families: Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, and Jahdiel. They were mighty men of valor, famous men, and heads of their families."<br><br>While Hizki is not directly named in this verse, he is part of the broader genealogical context that includes the descendants of Gad, one of the tribes of Israel. The genealogies in Chronicles serve to establish the historical and familial connections among the tribes of Israel, emphasizing their roles and contributions to the nation.<br><br><b>Historical and Theological Context:</b><br><br>The genealogies in the Book of Chronicles were compiled during the post-exilic period, a time when the Israelites were returning from Babylonian captivity and re-establishing their identity as a people. These records were crucial for maintaining tribal affiliations and land inheritances, as well as for preserving the history and heritage of the Israelites.<br><br>From a theological perspective, the inclusion of figures like Hizki in the genealogies underscores the importance of every member within the community of Israel. Each individual, regardless of their prominence or obscurity, played a role in the unfolding narrative of God's chosen people. The genealogies highlight the continuity of God's covenant with Israel and His faithfulness across generations.<br><br><b>Cultural and Religious Significance:</b><br><br>In the broader cultural and religious context, names like Hizki serve as reminders of the values and attributes esteemed by the Israelites. The meaning of Hizki's name, "strong" or "mighty," reflects the qualities admired in leaders and warriors within the tribal society. Such names were often aspirational, expressing the hopes and prayers of parents for their children to embody these virtues.<br><br>While Hizki himself may not be a central figure in biblical narratives, his inclusion in the genealogical records of Chronicles contributes to the rich tapestry of Israel's history. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the tribes and the individuals who comprised them, each playing a part in the divine account recorded in Scripture.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">HIZKI</span><p>hiz'-ki (chizqi; Septuagint Azaki; the King James Version Hezeki): A son of Elpaal, a descendant of Benjamin (<a href="/1_chronicles/8-17.htm">1 Chronicles 8:17</a>).<p><a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/2395.htm"><span class="l">2395.
