Strong's Lexicon Chazo: Vision, Revelation Original Word: חֲזוֹ Word Origin: Derived from the root חָזָה (chazah), meaning "to see" or "to perceive." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is ὅραμα (horama), which also means "vision" or "sight." This term is used in passages such as Acts 10:3, where Peter receives a vision from God. Usage: The term "Chazo" refers to a vision or revelation, often of a prophetic nature. It is used to describe the divine communication received by prophets, conveying God's messages to His people. These visions are not merely visual experiences but encompass a deeper understanding and insight into God's will and future events. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, visions were a primary means through which God communicated with His prophets. These revelations were considered authoritative and were often recorded as part of the prophetic books in the Hebrew Bible. The culture of the time placed great importance on the role of prophets as intermediaries between God and His people, and visions were a key aspect of their ministry.
