Strong's Lexicon peullah: Work, deed, recompense, reward Original Word: פְעֻלָּה Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: p`ullah Pronunciation: peh-ool-LAH Phonetic Spelling: (peh-ool-law') Definition: work Meaning: The term פְעֻלָּה generally refers to "work," "deed," "reward," or "wages." It encompasses the concept of labor or the result of one's actions, often implying a recompense or reward for work done. Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּעַל (pa'al), which means "to do" or "to make." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1397 (ergasia): Refers to work, business, or occupation, often used in the New Testament to describe labor or trade. • G3009 (leitourgia): Denotes a public service or ministry, particularly in a religious context, highlighting the aspect of service as work. • G3449 (misteos): Relates to wages or reward, similar to the recompense aspect of פְעֻלָּה. • G4192 (ponos): Refers to toil or labor, often with an emphasis on the hardship or pain associated with work. These Greek terms reflect various dimensions of work and reward, paralleling the Hebrew concept of פְעֻלָּה in both secular and spiritual contexts. Usage: The word פְעֻלָּה is used in various contexts in the Hebrew Bible to denote the work or deeds of individuals, as well as the rewards or consequences that follow. It can refer to both physical labor and moral or spiritual actions. Context: פְעֻלָּה appears in several passages throughout the Old Testament, illustrating the multifaceted nature of work and its outcomes. In Exodus 23:16, it is used in the context of the "Feast of Harvest, the firstfruits of your labors (פְעֻלָּה) from what you sow in the field." This highlights the agricultural aspect of work and the celebration of its yield. In Job 7:2, the term is used to describe the longing of a laborer for his wages: "Like a slave he longs for shade; like a hired man he waits for his wages (פְעֻלָּה)." This reflects the expectation of reward for one's toil. In Psalm 28:4, it is associated with divine recompense: "Repay them according to their deeds and for their evil work (פְעֻלָּה)." Here, it underscores the moral dimension of actions and their consequences. The term is also found in Proverbs 10:16, where it contrasts the outcomes of righteousness and wickedness: "The labor (פְעֻלָּה) of the righteous leads to life, but the gain of the wicked brings punishment."
