Strong's Lexicon Yischaq: Isaac Original Word: יִשְׂחָק Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Yischaq Pronunciation: yits-khawk' Phonetic Spelling: (yis-khawk') Definition: Jischak Meaning: Isaac; he laughs or laughter. Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root verb שָׂחַק (sachaq), meaning "to laugh" or "to rejoice." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Greek Number 2464: Ἰσαάκ (Isaak) • The Greek transliteration of Isaac, used in the New Testament to refer to the same patriarchal figure. Usage: The name יִשְׂחָק (Isaac) is used as a proper noun in the Hebrew Bible, referring to the son of Abraham and Sarah, and the father of Jacob and Esau. Isaac is one of the patriarchs of the Israelites. Context: • Isaac is a central figure in the biblical narrative, primarily found in the Book of Genesis. His birth is a fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham and Sarah, who were advanced in age and childless. The name "Isaac" reflects the laughter of disbelief and joy that accompanied the announcement of his birth (Genesis 17:17; 18:12-15). • Isaac's life is marked by several significant events, including the near-sacrifice on Mount Moriah, where God tested Abraham's faith (Genesis 22:1-14). This event is often seen as a foreshadowing of sacrificial themes in later biblical texts. • Isaac married Rebekah, and they had twin sons, Esau and Jacob. The narrative of Isaac's family highlights themes of blessing, birthright, and divine election, particularly in the story of Jacob's deception to receive Isaac's blessing (Genesis 27). • Isaac's life is characterized by his role as a patriarch, his interactions with the Philistines, and his efforts to maintain peace and prosperity for his family (Genesis 26). • Isaac is mentioned in the New Testament as an example of faith and as part of the lineage of Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:2; Hebrews 11:17-20).
