Strong's Lexicon abad: To work, serve, labor, worship Original Word: עֲבַד Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: `abad Pronunciation: ah-vad' Phonetic Spelling: (ab-bad') Definition: to do, make, prepare, keep Meaning: The verb עֲבַד (ʿăḇaḏ) primarily means "to do," "to make," "to prepare," or "to keep." Word Origin: A primitive root in Aramaic. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4160 (ποιέω, poieō): to make, to do • G4238 (πράσσω, prassō): to practice, to perform These Greek entries reflect similar actions of making, doing, or performing tasks, paralleling the Aramaic usage of עֲבַד in the Old Testament. Usage: This verb is used in various contexts within the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra. It conveys actions related to creating, performing tasks, or maintaining something. Context: The Aramaic verb עֲבַד (ʿăḇaḏ) appears in the context of the exilic and post-exilic periods, reflecting the linguistic environment of the Jewish people during the Babylonian captivity and subsequent Persian rule. It is used in narratives and decrees, often in relation to the actions of kings, officials, and the Jewish community. In the book of Daniel, עֲבַד is used to describe actions taken by Daniel and his companions, as well as decrees and commands issued by Babylonian and Persian rulers. For example, in Daniel 3:1, it is used to describe Nebuchadnezzar's action of making an image of gold: "King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, sixty cubits high and six cubits wide, and set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon." In Ezra, the verb is used in the context of rebuilding the temple and the city of Jerusalem, reflecting the efforts and decrees made by Persian kings to support the Jewish returnees. For instance, in Ezra 5:8, it is used to describe the work being done on the temple: "The king should know that we went to the house of the great God in the province of Judah. It is being built with large stones, and timber is being laid in the walls. The work is being carried out with diligence and is succeeding in their hands." The verb עֲבַד is integral to understanding the actions and decrees that shaped the Jewish community's restoration and religious life during this period.
