Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2237 (ἡδονή, hēdonē) - pleasure, delight - G2106 (εὐδοκέω, eudokeō) - to be well pleased, to take delight Usage: The Hebrew word "oneg" primarily conveys the sense of delight or pleasure. It is used to describe a state of joy or satisfaction, often in the context of spiritual or religious observance. The term suggests a deep, fulfilling enjoyment that goes beyond mere physical pleasure, encompassing a sense of contentment and spiritual well-being. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of "oneg" was closely associated with the observance of the Sabbath.
