◄ 1157. baad ►
Strong's Lexicon baad: For, on behalf of, behind, through, about, over Original Word: בְּעַד Part of Speech: Preposition Transliteration: b`ad Pronunciation: bah-ad Phonetic Spelling: (beh-ad') Definition: For, on behalf of, behind, through, about, over Meaning: in up to, over against, at, beside, among, behind, for Word Origin: Derived from a root word meaning "to separate" or "to divide." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G5228 (ὑπέρ, huper): Often used in the New Testament to mean "on behalf of" or "for the sake of." - G473 (ἀντί, anti): Can mean "instead of" or "in place of," reflecting a similar idea of substitution or representation. Usage: The Hebrew preposition "baad" is versatile, often used to express the idea of acting on behalf of someone or something, or being in a position of protection or separation. It can denote physical separation, as in being "behind" something, or metaphorical separation, as in acting "for" or "on behalf of" someone. It is frequently used in contexts where advocacy, protection, or intercession is implied. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of acting on behalf of another was significant, especially in legal and familial contexts. The idea of intercession, whether in prayer or in legal matters, was a vital part of community life. The use of "baad" reflects the communal and interdependent nature of ancient Israelite society, where individuals often acted as representatives or protectors of their family or tribe.
