Strong's Lexicon zulah: Except, besides, apart from Original Word: זוּלָה Part of Speech: noun feminine; preposition; conjunction; preposition Transliteration: zuwlah Pronunciation: zoo-LAH Phonetic Spelling: (zoo-law') Definition: scattering, removal, except Meaning: The term זוּלָה (zulah) primarily means "scattering" or "removal." It is also used to denote "except" or "besides," indicating exclusion or exception. Word Origin: Derived from the root זול (zalal), which conveys the idea of being cheap or lightly esteemed. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1622: ἔξω (exō) • Often translated as "outside" or "without," this Greek term conveys a sense of exclusion or being apart from something. • G4133: πλήν (plēn) • This Greek word is used to mean "except" or "but," similar to the Hebrew זוּלָה (zulah), indicating an exception or contrast within a statement. These Greek terms reflect similar concepts of exclusion or exception as found in the Hebrew זוּלָה (zulah), illustrating the continuity of these ideas across the biblical languages. Usage: The word זוּלָה (zulah) is used in the Hebrew Bible to express the concept of exclusion or exception, often translated as "except" or "besides" in English. It appears in contexts where something is set apart or distinguished from others. Context: זוּלָה (zulah) is a Hebrew term that appears in the Old Testament to denote exclusion or exception. It is often used in legal or covenantal contexts to specify conditions or stipulations that set something apart from the general rule. For example, in Deuteronomy 1:36, the term is used to highlight Caleb's unique status among the Israelites: "except Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him and his descendants I will give the land on which he has set foot, because he has followed the LORD wholeheartedly" (BSB). This usage underscores the idea of Caleb being an exception due to his faithfulness. The term is also found in poetic and prophetic literature, where it serves to emphasize distinctions or exclusions in the narrative or message.
