Strong's Lexicon zeman: Time, season Original Word: זְמַן Word Origin: Derived from the root זָמַן (zaman), meaning "to appoint" or "to designate." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for "zeman" is καιρός (kairos), which also means an appointed or opportune time. Usage: The Hebrew word "zeman" refers to a specific period or appointed time. It is used to denote a set or fixed time, often in the context of seasons or divinely appointed times. The term emphasizes the idea of an ordained or predetermined period, reflecting God's sovereignty over time. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, time was often understood in terms of agricultural cycles and religious festivals. The concept of "zeman" would have been significant in a culture that relied heavily on the seasons for agriculture and observed religious festivals at appointed times. The Israelites recognized that God had established times and seasons, which were integral to their worship and daily life.
