Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root עֶשֶׂר (eser), meaning "ten." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • The Greek equivalent for the number ten is δέκα (deka), which corresponds to Strong's Greek Number 1176. This term is used in the New Testament in similar contexts, such as in the parable of the ten virgins (Matthew 25:1-13) and the ten lepers (Luke 17:12). Usage: The term עָשָׂר is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote the number ten. It appears in various contexts, including counting, measurements, and descriptions of quantities. Context: • The Hebrew word עָשָׂר (asar) is a cardinal number representing the value of ten. It is frequently used in the Old Testament to describe quantities, ages, and measurements. The number ten often symbolizes completeness or a full set, as seen in the Ten Commandments or the ten plagues of Egypt. • In Genesis 18:32, Abraham negotiates with God to spare Sodom if ten righteous people can be found: "Then he said, 'May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak once more. What if only ten can be found there?' He answered, 'For the sake of ten, I will not destroy it.'" • In Exodus 34:28, Moses receives the Ten Commandments: "And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights, without eating bread or drinking water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant—the Ten Commandments." • The number ten is also significant in the context of tithing, as seen in Leviticus 27:32: "Every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd’s rod will be holy to the LORD." • The use of עָשָׂר in the Hebrew Bible underscores its importance in religious, cultural, and legal contexts, often representing a complete or perfect set.
