It refers to a family or clan that returned from the Babylonian exile. The name may imply "strong fortune" or "a troop of fortune," suggesting a sense of strength or blessing associated with the family.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The name Azgad appears in the context of the Jewish return from Babylonian exile, a significant event in Jewish history. This period marked the restoration of the Jewish community in Jerusalem and the rebuilding of the Temple under the leadership of figures like Zerubbabel and Ezra. The returnees were organized by family groups, and the listing of these families underscores the importance of lineage and heritage in post-exilic Jewish society.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/5794.htm">az</a> and <a href="/hebrew/1409.htm">gad</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"Gad is mighty," an Isr. name<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Azgad (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">עַזְגָּד</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ασγαδ</font>, <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Αζγαδ</font> (<em>Gad is mighty</em>; Gray<sup>Prop.
