Berean Strong's Lexicon yeshach: To be at ease, to be secure, to feel safe Original Word: יֵשַׁח Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: yeshach Pronunciation: yay-shakh Phonetic Spelling: (yeh'-shakh) Definition: To be at ease, to be secure, to feel safe Meaning: hunger Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts includes εἰρήνη (eirēnē - G1515), meaning peace, and ἀσφάλεια (asphaleia - G803), meaning security or safety. Usage: The Hebrew verb "yeshach" conveys a sense of being at ease or feeling secure. It often implies a state of tranquility or safety, free from fear or danger. This term can be used both in a physical sense, such as being safe from enemies, and in a more abstract sense, such as feeling secure in one's faith or trust in God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, security and safety were highly valued, especially given the frequent threats from neighboring nations and the harshness of the natural environment. The concept of being at ease or secure was often associated with God's protection and provision. In a society where physical and spiritual threats were common, the assurance of safety was a significant aspect of the covenant relationship with God.
