Strong's Lexicon tachra: Rivalry, Competition Original Word: תַּחֲרָא Word Origin: Derived from the root חָרָה (charah), which means "to burn" or "to be kindled." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for rivalry or contention can be found in Strong's Greek Dictionary under entries such as 2052 (ἔρις, eris), which means strife or discord. Usage: The term "tachra" is used to describe a sense of rivalry or competition, often in the context of interpersonal relationships. It conveys the idea of contention or strife that arises when individuals or groups vie against each other, typically for superiority or advantage. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, rivalry often emerged in familial and tribal contexts, where inheritance, leadership, and social standing were significant. The patriarchal society of ancient Israel placed a strong emphasis on lineage and birthright, which could lead to rivalry among siblings or between different family branches. This concept is reflected in various biblical narratives where competition and jealousy lead to conflict and division.
