Strong's Lexicon shalanan: Secure, at ease, tranquil Original Word: שַׁלְאֲנָן Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁלַן (shalan), which is related to the concept of being at ease or secure. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent that captures a similar sense of peace and security is εἰρήνη (eirēnē), Strong's Greek #1515, which is often translated as "peace" in the New Testament. Usage: The Hebrew word "shalanan" conveys a sense of security, tranquility, and being at ease. It is often used to describe a state of peace and restfulness, free from disturbance or fear. In the biblical context, it can refer to both physical safety and spiritual peace, reflecting a trust in God's protection and provision. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, security and peace were highly valued, especially given the frequent threats from neighboring nations and the challenges of living in a land that required constant vigilance for survival. The concept of being "at ease" was not just about physical safety but also about a deep-seated trust in God's covenant promises. The Israelites understood that true security came from living in accordance with God's laws and under His protection. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Originthe same as shaanan, q.v.
