Strong's Lexicon ashte: Eleven Original Word: עֶשְׁתֵּי Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root עֶשֶׁר (eser), meaning "ten." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for the number eleven is ἕνδεκα (hendeka), Strong's Greek #1733. Usage: The Hebrew word "ashte" is used to denote the number eleven. It is a cardinal number that appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, often in lists, genealogies, and descriptions of quantities. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, numbers held significant symbolic meaning. The number eleven, being one more than ten, often represented a sense of incompleteness or transition, as ten was considered a number of completeness and order. The use of numbers in the Hebrew Bible often goes beyond mere counting, reflecting deeper theological and symbolic meanings.
