Topical Lexicon Word Origin: This Aramaic term is derived from a root that is not used in the Hebrew Bible but is understood within the context of Aramaic language and literature. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G5303 (ὑστέρημα • hysterēma): This Greek term means "lack" or "deficiency" and is used in the New Testament to describe situations where something is missing or needed. • G5532 (χρεία • chreia): This Greek word means "need" or "necessity" and is used to express the concept of something that is required or essential. These Greek terms correspond to the Aramaic חֲשַׁח in their shared focus on the idea of necessity and need, reflecting a common theme across the biblical languages of human dependence on God and the fulfillment of divine purposes. Usage: This term is used in the context of expressing necessity or need, often in relation to requirements or essential conditions. Context: • The term חֲשַׁח appears in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Daniel. It is used to convey the concept of necessity or need, often in the context of requirements that must be met or conditions that are essential for a particular situation. • In the book of Daniel, the use of Aramaic reflects the historical and cultural context of the Babylonian exile, where Aramaic was a common language of administration and communication. The term חֲשַׁח, therefore, is part of the linguistic tapestry that illustrates the interactions between the Jewish exiles and the Babylonian authorities. • The concept of necessity in the biblical text often carries theological implications, highlighting the dependence of human beings on divine provision and guidance. The use of חֲשַׁח in Daniel underscores the theme of divine sovereignty and the fulfillment of God's purposes, even in foreign lands and under foreign rule.
