Strong's Lexicon ashuyah: Work, deed, or action Original Word: אֲשׁוּיָה Word Origin: Derived from the root word אָשָׁה (ashah), which means "to make" or "to do." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is ἔργον (ergon), which also means work or deed. This is seen in passages like James 2:17 (BSB), "So too, faith by itself, if it does not result in action, is dead." Usage: The term "ashuyah" refers to an action or deed, often highlighting the result or product of one's labor. It is used to describe the tangible outcomes of one's efforts, whether in a physical, moral, or spiritual sense. In the biblical context, it can refer to the works of God, human endeavors, or the deeds that reflect one's character and faith. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, actions and deeds were seen as reflections of one's character and faithfulness to God. The concept of "ashuyah" would have been understood as integral to one's identity and relationship with God. The Hebrew Scriptures often emphasize the importance of righteous deeds as evidence of a faithful life, aligning with the covenantal relationship between God and His people.
