Part of Speech: Noun Feminine

Word Origin: Derived from the root עָלַל (alal), which means "to act severely, deal with severely, make a fool of."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent in the Strong's Concordance, the concept of deeds or actions can be related to Greek words such as ἔργον (ergon - Strong's Greek 2041), which means "work" or "deed."

Usage: The term "aliliyyah" refers to an action or deed, often with a connotation of intentionality or purpose. It can imply a significant or noteworthy act, whether positive or negative, depending on the context. In the Hebrew Bible, it is used to describe actions that are deliberate and impactful.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, actions and deeds were often seen as reflections of one's character and faith. The concept of "aliliyyah" would have been understood as encompassing not just the physical act but also the intention and moral implications behind it. In a society where oral tradition and storytelling were key, deeds were often recounted to convey moral lessons or divine principles.
