It can also denote "sunset," "the west," or "towards." Word Origin: Derived from the root בּוֹא (bôʾ), meaning "to come" or "to go." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G3598 (ὁδός, hodos): This Greek term is often used in the New Testament to denote a "way," "road," or "journey." It shares a conceptual similarity with מָבוֹא in terms of indicating a path or direction, whether literal or metaphorical. The usage of ὁδός in the New Testament often carries spiritual connotations, such as the "way" of righteousness or the path of following Christ. In summary, מָבוֹא (māḇôʾ) is a multifaceted term in the Hebrew Bible, encompassing ideas of physical entry, directional orientation, and the natural phenomenon of sunset. Its usage reflects both the physical and spiritual journeys of the biblical narrative. Usage: The word is used in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often to describe physical entrances or directions, such as the entrance to a city or the western direction associated with sunset. Context: • Entrance: מָבוֹא is frequently used to describe a physical entrance or gateway. For example, it can refer to the entrance of a city or a house, symbolizing a point of access or entry. • Sunset/West: The term is also used to denote the direction of the west, often associated with the setting sun. This usage highlights the cultural and geographical orientation of the ancient Israelites, who viewed the west as the direction of sunset. • Directional Use: In some contexts, מָבוֹא is used to indicate a general direction or movement towards a particular place. This can be both literal and metaphorical, suggesting a journey or progression towards a goal or destination. • Biblical References: The word appears in various passages throughout the Old Testament. For instance, in Joshua 1:4 (BSB), it is used to describe the extent of the land promised to the Israelites: "Your territory shall extend from the wilderness and Lebanon to the great river, the Euphrates—all the land of the Hittites—and west as far as the Great Sea."
