Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • The Greek equivalent of the concept of being "called" or "select" can be found in terms such as κλητός (kletos • Strong's Greek 2822), which means "called" or "invited," and ἐκλεκτός (eklektos • Strong's Greek 1588), meaning "chosen" or "elect." These terms are used in the New Testament to describe those who are called by God, particularly in the context of the Christian community and the calling of believers. This entry provides a comprehensive understanding of the Hebrew term קָרִיא (Qariy) and its significance within the biblical text, emphasizing the themes of divine calling and selection. Usage: The word קָרִיא appears in the context of being called or selected, often in relation to people or groups who are chosen for a particular task or identity. It is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe those who are set apart or designated by God or by a community. Context: • The term קָרִיא (Qariy) is relatively rare in the Hebrew Bible, but it carries significant theological implications. It is often associated with the concept of divine election or calling, where individuals or groups are chosen by God for a specific purpose. This can be seen in the context of Israel as a nation called by God, or in the selection of individuals for prophetic or leadership roles. • In the broader biblical narrative, the idea of being "called" is central to understanding the relationship between God and His people. It underscores the notion of a covenant relationship, where those who are called are expected to live in accordance with God's will and purposes. • The concept of being "select" or "chosen" also highlights the responsibility and privilege that comes with being called by God. It is not merely a status but a call to action and faithfulness.
