Ezri is a derivation of the Hebrew verb "ozer". "Ozer" translates into English as "to help". Ezri is translated from the Hebrew as "my help". Ezri is used both as a surname and a given name. The earliest of use of Ezri as a given name is found in the Old Testament at 1 Chronicles 27:26 where Ezri is identified as the son of Chelub, though "Chelub" is a slight mispronounciation in the King James Bible, since the original Hebrew text in the Torah uses a "cuff" not a "chuff" character. A better rendering of the "Chelub" as, "Kelub" is found in other translations. Ezri's occupation is described as an overseer of the workers of King David's lands. Notable instances of the name Ezri include: *
