Strong's Lexicon bathah: To trust, to be confident, to feel secure Original Word: בָּתָה Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: bathah Pronunciation: bah-THAH Phonetic Spelling: (baw-thaw') Definition: desolation Meaning: Desolation. Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to desolate. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in Strong's Concordance is G3004 (λέγω, legō), which primarily means "to say" or "to speak." While G3004 does not directly translate to "desolation," it is included here to illustrate the broader lexical connections within the Strong's numbering system. The concept of desolation in the Greek New Testament is often conveyed through different terms, such as ἐρημία (erēmia, G2048), which directly translates to "desolation" or "wilderness." Usage: The term בָּתָה (bāṯāh) is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a state of desolation or ruin, often in the context of divine judgment or the aftermath of destruction. Context: The Hebrew word בָּתָה (bāṯāh) appears in the context of describing desolation, particularly as a result of divine judgment or calamity. This term is used to convey the idea of a place being laid waste or left in ruins. The concept of desolation is significant in the Hebrew Bible, as it often serves as a warning or consequence for disobedience to God's commandments. The imagery associated with בָּתָה is stark and serves to emphasize the severity of the situation, highlighting the absence of life and prosperity where there once was abundance. This term is closely related to other Hebrew words that describe destruction and desolation, contributing to a broader theological theme of judgment and restoration found throughout the biblical narrative.
