Strong's Lexicon hed: Echo, sound, reverberation Original Word: הֵד Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: hed Pronunciation: hayd Phonetic Spelling: (hade) Definition: Echo, sound, reverberation Meaning: a shout Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to echo or resound. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "hed," the concept of sound and echo can be related to Greek words like "ἠχώ" (ēchō), which means sound or noise, and is used in the New Testament to describe the fame or report of Jesus spreading (Luke 4:37). Usage: The Hebrew word "hed" refers to a sound that echoes or reverberates. It is used to describe the phenomenon of sound waves reflecting off surfaces and creating a repeated auditory effect. In the biblical context, it can symbolize the enduring nature of God's word or the lasting impact of a significant event or proclamation. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, sound played a crucial role in communication, especially in a predominantly oral culture. Echoes could be experienced in natural settings such as valleys or caves, and they often carried symbolic meanings. The concept of an echo might have been used metaphorically to describe the lasting influence of divine messages or the persistent call to repentance and obedience.
