Zaza, a descendant of Jerahmeel from the tribe of Judah (1 Chronicles 2:33); possibly related to Assyrian name Zazâ
Zaza appears in the genealogy of Jerahmeel within the tribe of Judah, mentioned only in 1 Chronicles 2:33. Scholars note a possible connection to an Assyrian personal name Zazâ, suggesting the name had wider Semitic usage. The etymology remains unclear, and the single biblical occurrence offers no narrative context. Like many names in Chronicles' genealogies, Zaza marks a person's place in Israel's ancestral structure without telling us anything about their life.
Senses
1. sense 1 — All translations simply transliterate with coordinating conjunction: Spanish 'y-Zaza,' English 'and-Zaza,' with French and German bracketing. First Chronicles preserves extensive genealogical material for the tribe of Judah, and Zaza is one link in the long chain descending from Jerahmeel. His inclusion establishes tribal connection and territorial claims in the restoration period, though we know nothing of his personal history or significance beyond this genealogical anchor. 1×
