Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name Zabad in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the concept of being "endowed" or "gifted" can be related to Greek words like χάρις (charis, G5485), meaning "grace" or "gift."

Usage: The name Zabad means "endowed" or "gift." It is used as a proper name for several individuals in the Old Testament, signifying someone who is given or endowed, possibly by God.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, names were often reflective of circumstances surrounding a birth or the aspirations of the parents for the child.
