◄ 6567. parash ►
Strong's Lexicon parash: To declare, to explain, to make distinct Original Word: פָרָשׁ Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: parash Pronunciation: pah-RAHSH Phonetic Spelling: (paw-rash') Definition: to separate, to wound Meaning: The Hebrew verb פָרָשׁ (parash) primarily means "to separate" or "to wound." It conveys the idea of dividing or distinguishing between entities, as well as inflicting injury. Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1252 (διακρίνω • diakrinō): To distinguish, to judge, to discern. • G1316 (διαστέλλω • diastellō): To set apart, to distinguish. • G1321 (διδάσκω • didaskō): To teach, to instruct. • G2447 (ἰάομαι • iaomai): To heal, to cure. • G5330 (Φαρισαῖος • Pharisaios): Pharisee, a member of a Jewish sect known for strict adherence to the law and separation from Gentiles. These Greek terms reflect similar themes of separation, distinction, and, in some cases, healing or teaching, which can be conceptually linked to the Hebrew פָרָשׁ. The interplay between these concepts highlights the multifaceted nature of separation and its implications in both the Hebrew and Greek biblical texts. Usage: The term is used in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often related to the act of separating or distinguishing, and occasionally in the context of causing harm or injury. Context: • The root פָרָשׁ (parash) appears in several forms throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, often in contexts that involve separation or division. This can include the physical act of separating objects or people, as well as more abstract forms of separation, such as distinguishing between different groups or ideas. • In some instances, פָרָשׁ is used in the context of wounding or inflicting harm, though this usage is less common. The act of wounding can be both literal, as in physical injury, or metaphorical, as in causing emotional or spiritual harm. • The concept of separation is significant in the Hebrew Bible, often associated with holiness and the distinction between the sacred and the profane. The act of separating can be seen as a means of maintaining purity and order within the community. • The Berean Standard Bible (BSB) provides translations that reflect these nuances, emphasizing the importance of context in understanding the specific meaning of פָרָשׁ in each passage.
