Strong's Lexicon batach: Trust, rely, be confident, feel secure Original Word: בָּטח Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: batach Pronunciation: bah-takh Phonetic Spelling: (baw-takh') Definition: to trust, be confident, sure Meaning: To trust, be confident, sure Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G803 (asphalēs): Secure, certain • G1679 (elpizō): To hope, to trust • G1680 (elpis): Hope, expectation • G2293 (tharseō): To be of good courage, to be confident • G3982 (peithō): To persuade, to trust, to have confidence These Greek terms reflect similar themes of trust, hope, and confidence found in the New Testament, often in the context of faith in Christ and the promises of God. Usage: The verb בָּטח (bāṭaḥ) is used in the Hebrew Bible to convey a sense of trust, confidence, or security. It often describes a reliance on God, but can also refer to trust in people, objects, or other entities. Context: The Hebrew verb בָּטח (bāṭaḥ) is a fundamental term in the Old Testament, expressing a deep sense of trust and confidence. It appears in various contexts, often highlighting the relationship between humans and God. This term is frequently used in the Psalms and the Prophets to encourage reliance on God's faithfulness and protection. In the Psalms, בָּטח is often associated with the security and peace that comes from trusting in God. For example, Psalm 56:3-4 (BSB) states, "When I am afraid, I will trust in You. In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?" This passage illustrates the psalmist's confidence in God's protection despite external threats. The concept of בָּטח also appears in the wisdom literature, where it is contrasted with reliance on wealth or human strength. Proverbs 3:5 (BSB) advises, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding." Here, בָּטח is presented as a wholehearted reliance on divine wisdom rather than human insight. In the prophetic books, בָּטח is used to call the people of Israel back to a covenantal trust in God, often in contrast to their misplaced trust in foreign alliances or idols. Isaiah 26:3-4 (BSB) declares, "You will keep in perfect peace the steadfast of mind, because he trusts in You. Trust in the LORD forever, because GOD the LORD is the Rock eternal." Overall, בָּטח encapsulates a profound theological principle in the Hebrew Bible: the call to place unwavering trust in God as the ultimate source of security and hope.
