Strong's Lexicon Bokeru: Morning, dawn Original Word: בֹּכְרוּ Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Bokruw Pronunciation: boh-KEH-roo Phonetic Spelling: (bo-ker-oo') Definition: Morning, dawn Meaning: Bokeru Word Origin: Derived from the root בֹּקֶר (boker), meaning "morning" or "dawn." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4404 (πρωΐ, proi) – meaning "early morning" or "dawn." - G3722 (ὄρθρος, orthros) – meaning "daybreak" or "early morning." Usage: The term "Bokeru" is used to denote the time of day when light first appears, marking the transition from night to day. It is often associated with new beginnings, hope, and the renewal of God's mercies. In the Hebrew Bible, "boker" is frequently used to signify the start of a new day, both literally and metaphorically. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the day was considered to begin at sunset, with the morning (boker) marking the midpoint of the 24-hour period. Morning was a significant time for various religious and daily activities, including morning sacrifices, prayers, and the gathering of manna. The concept of morning as a time of renewal and divine favor is deeply embedded in the Hebrew Scriptures.
