This Greek term similarly conveys the idea of reliance and assurance, often used in the New Testament to describe faith and trust in God or Christ. Usage: The term בִּטָּחוֹן is used in the Hebrew Bible to express a deep sense of trust and confidence, particularly in the context of one's relationship with God. It is often associated with the idea of finding security and assurance in God's promises and character. Context: בִּטָּחוֹן (bittachon) is a significant concept in the Hebrew Scriptures, reflecting a foundational aspect of the believer's relationship with God. This term is used to describe the trust and confidence that individuals place in God, acknowledging His sovereignty, faithfulness, and ability to provide and protect. In the biblical narrative, בִּטָּחוֹן is often depicted as a virtue that leads to peace and stability, contrasting with fear and anxiety. The Psalms frequently highlight this theme, encouraging believers to place their trust in God rather than in human strength or material resources. For example, in Psalm 56:4 (BSB), the psalmist declares, "In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?"
