Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries:There is no direct Greek equivalent for Gehazi in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as Gehazi is a Hebrew proper name specific to the Old Testament narrative.

Usage:Gehazi is a personal name in the Hebrew Bible, specifically known as the servant of the prophet Elisha. His name is often associated with themes of greed and deceit due to his actions in the biblical narrative.

Cultural and Historical Background:Gehazi served as the assistant to Elisha, a prominent prophet in the Northern Kingdom of Israel during the 9th century BCE. This period was marked by political instability and religious syncretism, with prophets like Elisha playing crucial roles in guiding the people back to the worship of Yahweh. Servants of prophets were often entrusted with significant responsibilities, acting as intermediaries between the prophet and the people.
