Strong's Lexicon chashaq: To love, to be attached to, to delight in, to cling Original Word: חָשַׁק Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: chashaq Pronunciation: khaw-shak' Phonetic Spelling: (khaw-shak') Definition: To love, to be attached to, to delight in, to cling Meaning: to cling, join, to love, delight in, elliptically, to deliver Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G25 (ἀγαπάω, agapaō): Often used in the New Testament to describe God's love for humanity and the love believers are to have for one another. - G5368 (φιλέω, phileō): Denotes a brotherly or affectionate love, often used in the context of friendship. Usage: The Hebrew verb "chashaq" primarily conveys a sense of deep affection, attachment, or love. It often implies a strong emotional bond or desire, whether between individuals or between God and His people. The term can denote both human and divine love, emphasizing a committed and intentional choice to love or be attached to someone or something. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, love was not merely an emotion but an action and commitment. "Chashaq" reflects this understanding, where love involves a deliberate choice and dedication. This concept is evident in covenant relationships, such as marriage or the covenant between God and Israel, where love is expressed through loyalty and faithfulness.
