In the biblical narrative, Jabez is noted for his prayerful request to God, which highlights his desire to overcome the negative connotations of his name and circumstances.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Hebrew culture, names were often reflective of circumstances surrounding a birth or prophetic of a person's future. Jabez's name, meaning "pain," suggests that his birth was particularly difficult or sorrowful for his mother. Despite this, Jabez is remembered for his faith and reliance on God, which was a significant aspect of Hebrew spirituality and identity.<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 desc. of Judah, also a place in Judah<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Jabez (4).<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">יַעְבֵּץ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name</b></font> <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1. masculine person</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>Jabez, a man of the Calebites</b></font>, <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/4-9.htm">1 Chronicles 4:9</a> (twice in verse);
