Berean Strong's Lexicon dalah: To draw, to lift, to fetch Original Word: דָּלָה Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: dalah Pronunciation: dah-LAH Phonetic Spelling: (daw-law') Definition: To draw, to lift, to fetch Meaning: to dangle, to let down a, bucket, to deliver Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "dalah," the concept of drawing or lifting can be related to Greek words such as "ἀντλέω" (antleo - to draw water) and "αἴρω" (airo - to lift, to take up). Usage: The Hebrew verb "dalah" primarily means to draw or lift, often in the context of drawing water from a well or lifting something up. It conveys the action of bringing something from a lower place to a higher one, typically involving effort and purpose. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, water was a precious resource, and wells were vital for survival. Drawing water was a daily task, often performed by women, and required physical effort. The act of drawing water symbolized sustenance and life, as water was essential for drinking, cooking, and agriculture. The imagery of drawing water is used metaphorically in the Bible to describe spiritual nourishment and divine provision.
