Berean Strong's Lexicon memshalah: Dominion, rule, authority, government Original Word: מֶמְשָׁלָה Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: memshalah Pronunciation: mem-shaw-LAW Phonetic Spelling: (mem-shaw-law') Definition: Dominion, rule, authority, government Meaning: rule, a realm, a ruler Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1849 (ἐξουσία, exousia): Often translated as "authority" or "power," this Greek term captures the essence of "memshalah" in the New Testament context. - G932 (βασιλεία, basileia): Translated as "kingdom," it reflects the concept of dominion and rule. Usage: The Hebrew word "memshalah" refers to the concept of dominion or authority. It is used to describe the power or rule exercised by a person or entity, often in a governmental or leadership context. This term emphasizes the structured and authoritative aspect of governance, whether it be divine, royal, or human. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of "memshalah" was integral to understanding theocratic and monarchical rule. The Israelites viewed God as the ultimate ruler, with earthly kings serving as His representatives. The idea of dominion was not only political but also spiritual, reflecting God's sovereignty over creation. The term is often associated with the Davidic monarchy, where the king was seen as God's appointed ruler over Israel.
