Strong's Lexicon chadash: To renew, to repair, to restore Original Word: חָדַשׁ Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's Greek 341: ἀνακαινόω (anakainoō) - to renew - Strong's Greek 2537: καινός (kainos) - new, fresh Usage: The Hebrew verb "chadash" primarily means to renew or restore. It conveys the idea of making something new or bringing it back to its original state. This term is often used in the context of physical restoration, such as repairing a structure, as well as spiritual renewal, such as a renewed heart or spirit. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of renewal was significant both in physical and spiritual contexts. The Israelites placed great importance on the restoration of their land, cities, and religious practices, especially after periods of exile or destruction. Spiritually, renewal was seen as a divine act, where God would restore His people to a right relationship with Him, often through repentance and covenant renewal.
