Strong's Lexicon azarah: Help, support, assistance Original Word: עֲזָרָה Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: `azarah Pronunciation: ah-zah-rah Phonetic Spelling: (az-aw-raw') Definition: an inclosure, a border Meaning: An inclosure, a border. Word Origin: Derived from the root עָזַר (azar), meaning "to help" or "to surround." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G833 (αὐλή • aulē): Refers to a courtyard or an open space, often used in the New Testament to describe the courts of the temple or the high priest's courtyard. • G2413 (ἱερόν • hieron): Refers to a temple or sacred place, often used in the New Testament to describe the temple in Jerusalem. • G2435 (ἱλαστήριον • hilastērion): Refers to a place of propitiation or atonement, often associated with the mercy seat or the cover of the Ark of the Covenant in the Holy of Holies. These Greek terms, while not direct translations, share thematic connections with the concept of sacred spaces and boundaries as seen in the Hebrew עֲזָרָה. They reflect the continuity of the idea of sacred inclosures and the importance of designated holy areas in both the Hebrew and Greek Scriptures. Usage: The term עֲזָרָה is used in the context of describing an enclosed area or a boundary, often related to sacred or significant spaces. Context: • The Hebrew word עֲזָרָה (Azarah) is primarily understood as an inclosure or a border. It is used in the context of describing areas that are set apart or designated for specific purposes, often with a sacred connotation. In the Old Testament, such inclosures could refer to the courts or precincts surrounding the temple or other holy sites. These areas were often marked by physical boundaries that delineated the sacred space from the common or profane. • The concept of an inclosure or border is significant in the biblical narrative as it underscores the idea of separation between the holy and the common. This separation is a recurring theme in the Old Testament, where physical boundaries often symbolize spiritual or moral boundaries. • The use of עֲזָרָה in the biblical text highlights the importance of maintaining the sanctity of certain spaces, reflecting the broader theological theme of holiness and the need for order and structure in worship practices.
