These Greek terms provide a range of meanings related to youth, offspring, and familial relationships, paralleling the Hebrew concept of "yeled" in various New Testament contexts. Usage: The word "yeled" appears in various contexts throughout the Hebrew Bible, often used to describe children or young people. It can refer to both male and female offspring, though it is more commonly associated with boys or young men. Context: • General Overview: The term "yeled" is frequently used in the Old Testament to describe children or young individuals. It is a common term that appears in narratives, legal texts, and poetic literature. The word emphasizes the youthfulness and potential of the individual, often highlighting their role within the family or community. • Biblical Contexts: • Genesis 21:8 (BSB): "So the child grew and was weaned, and Abraham held a great feast on the day Isaac was weaned." Here, "yeled" refers to Isaac as a young child. • Exodus 2:3 (BSB): "But when she could no longer hide him, she got a papyrus basket for him and coated it with tar and pitch. Then she placed the child in it and set it among the reeds along the bank of the Nile." In this passage, "yeled" is used for Moses as an infant. • 1 Samuel 1:24 (BSB): "Once she had weaned him, she took the boy with her, along with a three-year-old bull, an ephah of flour, and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD at Shiloh." Here, "yeled" refers to Samuel as a young boy. • Theological Significance: The use of "yeled" often underscores themes of promise, potential, and divine intervention. Children in the biblical narrative are frequently seen as blessings and bearers of future hope, reflecting God's ongoing covenant with His people.
