Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Aramaic; akin to the Hebrew root אַחַר (achar), meaning "after" or "behind."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for the concept of "after" or "behind" can be found in Strong's Greek entries such as 3326 (μετά • meta), which is used to denote accompaniment or succession, and 3694 (ὀπίσω • opisō), which means "behind" or "after." These Greek terms are used in the New Testament to convey similar ideas of sequence and position.

Usage: This Aramaic term appears in the context of the Hebrew Bible, particularly in passages where Aramaic is used, such as in the books of Daniel and Ezra. It is employed to indicate a sequence of events or a position relative to another object or event.

Context: The Aramaic word אַחַר is a preposition and adverb used to express the concept of succession in time or position. In the Biblical context, it is often found in narrative passages where events are described in chronological order. For example, in the book of Daniel, the term is used to describe events that occur after a particular vision or decree. The usage of אַחַר in the Aramaic sections of the Bible reflects the linguistic and cultural influences present during the Babylonian and Persian periods, when Aramaic was a common lingua franca. The term underscores the continuity and progression of divine plans and historical events as recorded in the Scriptures.
