Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to project or radiate. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2768 (keras): This Greek term is equivalent to the Hebrew "qeren" and is used in the New Testament to denote a horn, often symbolizing power or strength. • G2776 (kephale): While primarily meaning "head," this term can be related to "qeren" in contexts where the head is seen as a source of power or authority. • G4536 (salpigx): This Greek word refers to a trumpet, similar to the use of "qeren" for musical instruments made from horns. In summary, the Hebrew word "qeren" encompasses a range of meanings from the literal to the metaphorical, often symbolizing strength, power, and divine presence in the biblical text. Usage: The word "qeren" appears in various contexts throughout the Hebrew Bible. It is used to describe the physical horns of animals, such as in sacrificial contexts, and is also employed metaphorically to denote strength or power. It can refer to musical instruments, such as trumpets or cornets, and is used in descriptions of architectural features like corners or peaks. The term also appears in poetic and prophetic literature to symbolize rays of light or divine power. Context: • Physical Horns: In the Hebrew Bible, "qeren" is often used to describe the horns of animals, which were significant in sacrificial rituals (e.g., Exodus 29:12). The horn is a symbol of strength and power, as seen in Deuteronomy 33:17, where it is used to describe the might of Joseph's descendants. • Musical Instruments: "Qeren" is also used to refer to musical instruments, such as trumpets or cornets, which were often made from animal horns. These instruments were used in various religious and ceremonial contexts (e.g., Joshua 6:5). • Metaphorical Usage: The term is frequently employed metaphorically to denote power or strength. For instance, in 1 Samuel 2:10, it is used to describe the exaltation of the righteous: "He will give strength to His king and exalt the horn of His anointed." • Architectural and Natural Features: "Qeren" can describe architectural features like corners or peaks, as seen in Ezekiel 43:15, where it refers to the altar's horns. It can also denote natural features, such as mountain peaks. • Symbolic Rays or Power: In Habakkuk 3:4, "qeren" is used to describe rays of light emanating from God's hand, symbolizing divine power and majesty: "His radiance was like the sunlight; rays flashed from His hand, where His power is hidden."
