Strong's Lexicon dalah: To draw, to lift, to fetch Original Word: דָּלָה Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: dalah Pronunciation: dah-LAH Phonetic Spelling: (daw-law') Definition: to dangle, to let down a, bucket, to deliver Meaning: To dangle, to let down a bucket, to deliver Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G501 (ἀντλέω, antléō): This Greek verb means "to draw" or "to draw water," similar to the Hebrew דָּלָה in its literal sense of drawing water from a well or source. - G5274 (ὑπολαμβάνω, hypolambánō): While not a direct equivalent, this Greek term can mean "to take up" or "to assume," and in certain contexts, it can imply the act of taking up or delivering, resonating with the broader metaphorical sense of דָּלָה as delivering or rescuing. Usage: The verb דָּלָה (daláh) is used in the context of drawing or letting down, often associated with drawing water from a well or pit. It can also imply the act of delivering or rescuing. Context: The Hebrew verb דָּלָה (daláh) is a primitive root that primarily conveys the action of drawing or letting down, particularly in the context of water retrieval. This term is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe the physical act of lowering a bucket into a well to draw water, a common and essential task in ancient Near Eastern societies. The imagery of drawing water is often employed metaphorically to describe acts of deliverance or rescue, emphasizing the effort and care involved in such actions. In the Berean Standard Bible, דָּלָה is used in passages that highlight both the literal and figurative aspects of drawing or delivering. For example, in Exodus 2:19, the daughters of Reuel recount how Moses "drew water" for them, illustrating the literal use of the term. This action not only provided physical sustenance but also symbolized Moses' role as a deliverer, foreshadowing his future leadership in delivering the Israelites from Egypt. The term also appears in Proverbs 20:5, where it is used metaphorically: "The intentions of a man’s heart are deep waters, but a man of understanding draws them out." Here, דָּלָה conveys the idea of insightfully extracting or understanding the depths of human intentions, akin to drawing water from a deep well.
