◄ 5287. naar ►
Strong's Lexicon naar: Boy, lad, youth, servant Original Word: נָעַר Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: na`ar Pronunciation: nah-AR Phonetic Spelling: (naw-ar') Definition: Boy, lad, youth, servant Meaning: to tumble about Word Origin: Derived from the root verb נער (na'ar), meaning "to shake off" or "to shake out," which can imply the idea of youthful energy or vigor. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3816 (pais): Often used in the Septuagint to translate "naar," meaning child, servant, or young person. - G5207 (huios): While primarily meaning "son," it can also refer to a young male in certain contexts. Usage: The Hebrew word "naar" primarily refers to a young male, often translated as "boy" or "lad" in English. It can also denote a servant or attendant, reflecting a position of service or apprenticeship. The term is used to describe individuals in various stages of youth, from infancy to young adulthood, and sometimes even young men in positions of servitude or learning. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the term "naar" was used to describe young males who were often in a transitional phase of life, learning trades, or serving in households. Boys were typically under the tutelage of their fathers or masters, preparing for adult responsibilities. The concept of youth was associated with vigor, potential, and the need for guidance and discipline. The role of a "naar" could also extend to being a servant or apprentice, reflecting the hierarchical and familial structures of the time.
