Other Forms FormsΚασσία (Kassia; this is the form used in the Codex Alexandrinus)
Meaning & History
Greek form of Keziah, as it first appeared in the Septuagint. It coincides with the Greek noun κασία (kasia) meaning "cassia, cinnamon", which was borrowed into Greek from Hebrew and therefore comes from the same etymological root as Keziah. As such, the name Kasia could also be viewed as a Greek calque of Keziah.
