Strong's Lexicon yarat: To tremble, to be afraid, to be in awe Original Word: יָרַט Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: yarat Pronunciation: yah-RAHT Phonetic Spelling: (yaw-rat') Definition: to precipitate, hurl, headlong, to be rash Meaning: To precipitate, hurl, headlong, to be rash Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in Strong's Concordance is G791 (ἀσφαλής • asphalēs), which carries the idea of being secure or certain. While the Greek term does not directly translate the Hebrew concept of rashness, it provides a contrast in terms of stability and assurance, highlighting the biblical theme of seeking security and certainty through wise and deliberate actions rather than impulsive or reckless ones. Usage: The verb יָרַט (yarat) is used in the context of acting hastily or rashly, often with a sense of being thrown or hurled headlong into an action or situation. It conveys a sense of urgency or impetuousness. Context: The Hebrew verb יָרַט (yarat) appears in the context of actions characterized by haste or rashness. It is a primitive root that suggests a forceful or sudden movement, often implying a lack of deliberation or careful thought. The term is used to describe actions that are undertaken with a sense of urgency or impetuosity, sometimes leading to unintended consequences. In the biblical narrative, such actions are often portrayed as lacking wisdom or foresight, highlighting the importance of prudence and careful consideration in decision-making. The concept of acting rashly is addressed in various biblical passages, where the consequences of such actions serve as a cautionary tale. The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) provides translations that capture the essence of this term, emphasizing the need for wisdom and discernment in contrast to hasty or reckless behavior.
