Azarel ('God has helped'), a proper name borne by six individuals: a warrior of David, a Levite musician, a Danite leader, and others.
Azarel (עֲזַרְאֵל, 'El has helped') is a theophoric name combining the root עזר ('help') with the divine element אֵל. It designates at least five distinct men: a Benjaminite warrior who joined David at Ziklag (1 Chr 12:7), a Levite musician appointed by lot (1 Chr 25:18, possibly identical with Uzziel in v. 4), a Danite tribal chief (1 Chr 27:22), a man who had taken a foreign wife under Ezra's reform (Ezra 10:41), and one or two priestly figures in Nehemiah's era (Neh 11:13; 12:36). The name's popularity across tribes and periods reflects Israel's deep trust in divine assistance.
