Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to gyrate or move in a circle. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1074 (γενεά, genea): Refers to a generation or age, similar to the Hebrew "dor" in its emphasis on a period of time or a group of people living at the same time. • G1078 (γένεσις, genesis): Meaning origin or birth, this term can relate to the beginning of a generation or the process of coming into being. • G1549 (ἔκγονος, ekgonos): Refers to offspring or descendants, highlighting the generational aspect of "dor." • G5043 (τέκνον, teknon): Meaning child or descendant, this term emphasizes the familial and generational connections inherent in the concept of "dor." In summary, the Hebrew word "dor" encapsulates the cyclical and generational aspects of human life, emphasizing both the temporal nature of each generation and the enduring presence of God throughout the ages. Usage: The word "dor" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a period or cycle of time, often translated as "generation." It can refer to the people of a particular age or era, as well as the concept of a dwelling place or habitation. The term is used to express the continuity and succession of human life and history. Context: • The Hebrew word "dor" appears frequently in the Old Testament, often in contexts that emphasize the transitory nature of human life and the enduring faithfulness of God across generations. For example, in Psalm 90:1, it is written, "Lord, You have been our dwelling place through all generations (דּוֹר וָדוֹר)." This usage underscores the idea of God as a constant presence throughout the changing cycles of human existence. • In Deuteronomy 32:7, the term is used to encourage reflection on the past: "Remember the days of old; consider the years of many generations (דּוֹר וָדוֹר)." Here, "dor" serves as a reminder of the lessons and experiences of previous ages. • The cyclical nature of "dor" is also evident in Ecclesiastes 1:4: "Generations (דּוֹר) come and generations go, but the earth remains forever." This passage highlights the transient nature of human life in contrast to the permanence of the earth. • The concept of "dor" as a dwelling or habitation is less common but can be seen in the broader understanding of the term as encompassing the environment and context in which a generation lives.
