Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew name Shua, as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew text and does not have a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament writings.

Usage: The name Shua appears in the context of genealogies and family relations within the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify specific individuals, particularly in the lineage of Judah.

Context: Shua is mentioned in the genealogical records of the Old Testament. The name appears in the context of the family of Judah, one of the twelve sons of Jacob. In Genesis 38:2, Judah marries the daughter of a man named Shua, who is a Canaanite. This marriage results in the birth of three sons: Er, Onan, and Shelah. The narrative involving Shua's daughter highlights the integration and interaction between the Israelites and the Canaanites during the patriarchal period. The name Shua itself is not extensively detailed in the biblical text, but it serves as a marker of familial and tribal connections that are significant in the broader narrative of Israel's history.
