Strong's Lexicon yasaph: To add, increase, do again, continue Original Word: יָסַף Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4369 (προστίθημι, prostithēmi) - to add, to place additionally - G4129 (πληθύνω, plēthynō) - to multiply, to increase Usage: The Hebrew verb "yasaph" primarily means "to add" or "to increase." It is used in various contexts to indicate the act of adding or continuing something. This can refer to numerical increase, such as adding to a group or quantity, or to the continuation or repetition of an action. The verb can also imply an augmentation or enhancement of a state or condition. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of increase or addition was significant, especially in terms of family, wealth, and blessings. The agrarian society valued growth and multiplication, whether it be in crops, livestock, or descendants. The idea of God adding blessings or increasing the nation of Israel is a recurring theme in the Old Testament, reflecting the covenantal promises made to the patriarchs.
