Berean Strong's Lexicon chanik: Trained Original Word: חָנִיךְ Word Origin: Derived from the root חָנַךְ (chanak), meaning "to dedicate" or "to train." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of training and preparation can be related to Greek terms such as παιδεία (paideia - Strong's G3809), which refers to instruction or discipline. Usage: The term "chanik" refers to someone who is trained or instructed, particularly in a military or household context. It is used to describe individuals who have been prepared or equipped for a specific role or task, often implying a level of discipline and readiness. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, training and preparation were essential for both household management and military endeavors. The concept of a "trained" individual would have been significant in a patriarchal society where the head of the household was responsible for the protection and prosperity of the family. Training could involve various aspects, including martial skills, household management, and spiritual instruction.
