Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root עָזַר (azar), which means "to help" or "to aid." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G484 (antilēmpsis): This Greek term is related to the concept of help or assistance, often used in the context of spiritual gifts within the church, as seen in 1 Corinthians 12:28. • G1680 (elpis): While primarily translated as "hope," this term is connected to the idea of expectation of aid or salvation, reflecting a reliance on divine assistance. These entries provide a comprehensive understanding of the term עֶזְרָה (Ezrah) within the biblical narrative, illustrating its significance in both divine and human contexts of aid and support. Usage: The word עֶזְרָה is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote assistance or support, often in the context of divine help or human aid. Context: The Hebrew word עֶזְרָה (Ezrah) appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, emphasizing the concept of assistance or support. It is often used to describe the help that comes from God, highlighting His role as a provider and protector for His people. For instance, in 1 Chronicles 12:18, the Spirit comes upon Amasai, chief of the captains, who declares, "We are yours, David! We are with you, son of Jesse! Peace, peace to you, and peace to your helpers, for your God helps you." This passage underscores the divine aid that accompanies those who are aligned with God's purposes. Additionally, עֶזְרָה is used in the context of human relationships, where individuals provide support to one another. In Ezra 9:9, the term is used to describe the assistance provided by God to the Israelites: "Though we are slaves, our God has not forsaken us in our bondage. He has extended kindness to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, giving us new life to rebuild the house of our God and repair its ruins, and He has given us a wall of protection in Judah and Jerusalem." The concept of עֶזְרָה is integral to understanding the relational dynamics between God and His people, as well as among individuals within the community of faith. It reflects a theological perspective that sees God as an ever-present source of help and encourages believers to emulate this divine attribute by supporting one another.
