Strong's Lexicon machazeh: Vision Original Word: מַחֲזֶה Word Origin: Derived from the root חָזָה (chazah), meaning "to see" or "to behold." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - ὅραμα (horama) - Strong's Greek 3705, meaning "vision" or "that which is seen." - ὅρασις (horasis) - Strong's Greek 3706, meaning "sight" or "appearance." Usage: The term "machazeh" refers to a vision or a divine revelation. It is often used in the context of prophetic experiences where God reveals His will or future events to His prophets. The word emphasizes the visual aspect of the revelation, suggesting a supernatural insight granted by God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, visions were a common means through which God communicated with His people, particularly with prophets. These visions were considered authoritative and were often recorded as part of the prophetic literature. The concept of visions is deeply rooted in the Hebrew understanding of God as a personal and communicative deity who desires to reveal His plans and purposes to His chosen servants.
