Strong’s Definitions

זְרֻבָּבֶל Zᵉrubbâbel, zer-oob-baw-bel'; from H2215 and H894; descended of (i.e. from) Babylon, i.e. born there; Zerubbabel, an Israelite:—Zerubbabel.

Note by BLB: Strong's entry lists the pronunciation of this word with the "b" sound. This is incorrect. The ב (bet) does not have a daghesh lene so it is pronounced with a "v" sound. This is why the transliteration has a bar under the "b" (ḇ).
