Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

יִזְרְעֶאל & יִזְרְעֵאל (“that which God planted”), pr.n. [Jezreel].

(1) of a town in the tribe of Issachar (Joshua 19:18), where stood the palace of Ahab and his successors, 1 Kings 18:46, 21:1 2 Kings 9:15 whence דְּמֵי יִזְרְעֵאל Hosea 1:4, the blood of Jezreel is used of the blood there shed by the dynasties of Ahab and Jehu. Near the city there was a great valley עֵמֶק יִזְרְעֵאל Joshua 17:16; Judges 6:33 (afterwards called Ἐσδρήλωμ, now مرج ابن عامر, Burckhardt’s Travels, p. 334, Germ. ed. vol. ii. p. 579), in which Hosea 1:5, predicts that there shall be a great slaughter (יוֹם יִזְרְעֵאל Hosea 2:2). The same prophet gives to his eldest son, then newly born, the name of Jezreel (1:4 ), and he afterwards with his brother Lo-Ammi and his sister Lo-Ruhamah (2:24, 25 ) are made types of the people, when after their punishments and dispersions they are brought back to their own land (2:2 ), and endowed with new blessings. It is thus that the words are to be understood, which have been so much twisted by expositors, 2:24 : “the earth shall answer the corn and new wine and oil, and these (gifts of the earth) shall answer Jezreel;” i.e. the earth, made fruitful by Heaven (verse 23 ), shall again render its produce to Jezreel. The prophet goes on with the allusion made to Jezreel, verse 25 וּזְרַעְתִּיהָ בָּאָרֶץ “I will sow him again in the land, and I will again love Lo-Ruhamah (not beloved), and a people will I call Lo-Ammi (not a people);” i.e. the whole people of Israel, who were typified by the three children of the prophet, I will again plant, love, and appropriate as my own. יִזְרְעֵאל in this passage is construed as fem. being taken collectively, so Ephraim, Isaiah 17:10, 11 Isaiah 17:11, etc. [In this passage, the force of my people, and not my people, must also be remembered.]-The Gentile noun is יִזְרְעֵאלִי 1 Kings 21:1, f. יִזְרְעֵאלִית, יִזְרְעֵלִית 1 Samuel 27:3, 30:5.

(2) a town in the mountains of Judah, Joshua 15:56; 1 Samuel 29:1.

(3) pr.n. m.

(a) of a son of Hosea; comp. No. 1, Hosea 1:4.

(b) 1 Chronicles 4:3.

[“יְחֻבָּה (‘hidden,’ i.e. ‘protected,’ verbal of Pual), [Jehubbah], pr.n. of a man, 1 Chronicles 7:34. Root הָבָה.”]
