5292. Naarah
Strong's Lexicon
Naarah: Young woman, maiden, girl

Original Word: נַעֲרָה
Part of Speech: proper name, of a location; proper name, feminine
Transliteration: Na`arah
Pronunciation: nah-ar-AH
Phonetic Spelling: (nah-ar-aw')
Definition: Young woman, maiden, girl
Meaning: Naarah

Word Origin: Derived from the root נַעַר (na'ar), meaning "youth" or "young person."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3933 (parthenos): Often translated as "virgin" or "maiden," used in the New Testament to describe young women, particularly in the context of purity and marriageability.

Usage: The term "Naarah" is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a young woman or maiden, often implying a stage of life before marriage. It can denote a girl who is of marriageable age but not yet married. The word is used to describe both the physical and social status of a young female in ancient Israelite society.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the term "Naarah" carried significant cultural implications. Young women were often seen as under the protection and authority of their fathers until marriage, at which point they would come under the authority of their husbands. The status of a "Naarah" was one of transition, moving from childhood to adulthood, and it was a time when a young woman would be prepared for her future roles as a wife and mother. The societal expectations and roles of women were deeply rooted in the family and community structures of the time.
