אֱלִיעֶ֫זֶר · e.li.e.zer · H0461H“help, or court, of my God” Hitchcock's 18694 mentions in 2 books, most in 1 Chronicles (3)
Who he was
Eliezer was the second son of Moses and Zipporah (Exodus 18:4). His name, which means "my God is help," was given by Moses because God had delivered him from Pharaoh's sword (Exodus 18:4). Eliezer and his brother Gershom were born during Moses' exile in Midian. In the genealogies of the Levites, Eliezer is listed as a son of Moses (1Ch.23.15,17). He had a son named Rehabiah, who had many descendants (1 Chronicles 23:17; 26.25). The Bible does not provide any further details about Eliezer's life or role.
