Azrikam ('my help has risen'), a proper name borne by a Davidic descendant, a Benjaminite, a Levite, and a palace official.
Azrikam (עַזְרִיקָם, 'my help has risen') is a compound name from עֶזְרִי ('my help') and קָם ('has risen'). It identifies four distinct individuals: a descendant of King David through Neariah's line (1 Chr 3:23), a Benjaminite listed in Saul's genealogy (1 Chr 8:38; 9:44), a Levite gatekeeper (1 Chr 9:14; Neh 11:15), and a high-ranking official in King Ahaz's household whom the Ephraimite warrior Zichri killed during Pekah's invasion (2 Chr 28:7). The Septuagint renders it Ezreikan or Ezrikam across these contexts.
Senses
1. Azrikam (proper noun) — A proper masculine name meaning 'my help has risen,' designating four individuals in the post-monarchic genealogies and one in the monarchic narrative. The most dramatically memorable bearer is the palace steward (נְגִיד הַבַּיִת) slain during the Syro-Ephraimite conflict (2 Chr 28:7). The genealogical occurrences in 1 Chronicles 3, 8-9, and Nehemiah 11 show the name's currency across Davidic, Benjaminite, and Levitical lines. English and Spanish transliterations ('Azrikam/Azricam') preserve the name consistently. 6×
