Meaning and etymology of the name Bocheru




Bocheru Bocheru


There's only one man named Bocheru in the Bible. Bocheru, son of Azel, is one of the last mentioned in the genealogy of Benjamin (1 Chronicles 8:38).

The name Bocheru comes from the root verb bakar (bakar):



It's not uncommon for a name to exists in two forms, with or without the final waw, and Bocheru may simply be a playful variant of the name Becher. The waw may also be transposed on an original possessive yod, which makes the name Bocheru a playful variant of the name Bichri.

For a meaning of the name Bocheru, NOBS Study Bible Name List reads First Born and Jones' Dictionary of Old Testament Proper Names reads His First Born. BDB Theological Dictionary doesn't translate.

Another name that comes from the root bakar is Becorath.
