Strong's Lexicon Serach: Serach Original Word: שֶׂרַח Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root שָׂרַח (sarah), meaning "to spread" or "to extend." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Serach in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as she is a specific historical figure mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. Usage: Serach is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a female individual. She is noted as the daughter of Asher, one of the sons of Jacob, making her a member of the Israelite tribes. Her name is often associated with the idea of abundance or extension, possibly reflecting her role or significance within her family. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israelite society, genealogies were crucial for establishing tribal identities and inheritance rights. Serach's inclusion in the genealogical records highlights her importance, despite the patriarchal context where women were less frequently mentioned. Jewish tradition holds Serach in high regard, with some midrashic texts suggesting she lived an exceptionally long life and played a role in the Exodus narrative by identifying Moses as the redeemer.
