Strong's Lexicon didaché: Teaching, doctrine, instruction Original Word: διδαχή Word Origin: Derived from διδάσκω (didaskō), meaning "to teach." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H3948 לֶקַח (leqach) – meaning "learning, teaching, insight." - H8451 תּוֹרָה (torah) – often translated as "law" or "instruction." Usage: The term "didaché" refers to the act or content of teaching, often with a focus on the doctrines or teachings of Jesus and the apostles. It encompasses both the process of teaching and the substance of what is taught. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the authoritative teaching of Jesus, the apostles, and the early church. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, teaching was a respected profession, and philosophers and religious leaders were often followed by disciples who learned their teachings. In the Jewish context, rabbis were revered as teachers of the Law. The early Christian community placed a strong emphasis on teaching as a means of preserving and transmitting the faith. The "didaché" was central to the life of the early church, guiding believers in doctrine, ethics, and community life.
