Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from מוֹרֶשֶׁת (Moresheth), a place name. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the term "Morashtite" as it is a specific Hebrew designation related to a geographical location and its inhabitants. Usage: The term "Morashtite" is used to identify someone from Moresheth, specifically referring to the prophet Micah in the Bible. Context: The term "Morashtite" (מוֹרַשְׁתִּי) is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to denote an individual from the town of Moresheth. This designation is most notably applied to the prophet Micah, as seen in Micah 1:1: "The word of the LORD that came to Micah of Moresheth in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, the vision he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem." Moresheth, often identified with Moresheth-Gath, was a town located in the Shephelah region of ancient Judah. It is mentioned in the context of the prophet Micah, who was active during the reigns of the aforementioned kings of Judah. The town's association with Micah highlights its significance as the prophet's place of origin, which is crucial for understanding the socio-political and religious context of his prophecies. Micah's identification as a Morashtite underscores his connection to the rural areas of Judah, contrasting with the urban centers like Jerusalem. This background is reflected in his prophecies, which often emphasize social justice, the plight of the poor, and the corruption of the urban elite. The term "Morashtite" thus serves not only as a geographical identifier but also as a cultural and theological marker within the biblical narrative.
