Strong's Lexicon yamar: To change, exchange, alter Original Word: יָמַר Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: yamar Pronunciation: yah-MAR Phonetic Spelling: (yaw-mar') Definition: To change, exchange, alter Meaning: to exchange, to change places Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of change or exchange in the Hebrew Bible can be related to several Greek words in the New Testament, such as "μετατίθημι" (metatithēmi - Strong's G3346), which means to transfer or change, and "ἀλλάσσω" (allassō - Strong's G236), meaning to change or alter. Usage: The Hebrew verb "yamar" primarily means to change or exchange. It is used in contexts where something is altered or substituted for something else. This can refer to physical objects, conditions, or even abstract concepts such as behavior or status. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of change or exchange was significant in various aspects of life, including trade, vows, and religious practices. The ability to change or exchange something often implied a transformation or a shift in status, which could be positive or negative depending on the context. The idea of change is also deeply embedded in the covenantal relationship between God and His people, where transformation is a key theme.
