Strong's Lexicon gidyah: Kid, young goat Original Word: גִּדְיָה Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: gidyah Pronunciation: gid-YAH Phonetic Spelling: (ghid-yaw') Definition: a river brink Meaning: A river brink or bank. Word Origin: Derived from the root גָּדָה (gadah), which means "to cut" or "to cut off." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for גִּדְיָה in the Strong's Concordance, as the concept of a river brink is often contextually translated rather than directly paralleled in Greek. However, related Greek terms might include those that describe boundaries or edges, such as ὄχθη (ochthē), meaning "bank" or "shore," which is used in the New Testament to describe similar geographical features. Usage: The term גִּדְיָה is used in the context of describing the edge or bank of a river, where the land meets the water. Context: The Hebrew word גִּדְיָה (Gid'yah) appears in the context of describing geographical features, specifically the brink or bank of a river. This term is rooted in the idea of a boundary or edge, where the land is "cut off" by the water. In the ancient Near Eastern context, riverbanks were significant for agriculture, settlement, and travel, serving as natural boundaries and sources of life-giving water. The imagery of a river brink often evokes themes of transition, boundary, and provision. In the Biblical narrative, rivers and their banks are frequently mentioned as places of divine encounter, sustenance, and sometimes judgment. The term גִּדְיָה, while not extensively used in the Hebrew Bible, contributes to the rich tapestry of imagery associated with water and its boundaries.
