Strong's Lexicon ódé: Song, Ode Original Word: ᾠδή Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: ódé Pronunciation: o-day' Phonetic Spelling: (o-day') Definition: Song, Ode Meaning: an ode, song, hymn. Word Origin: Derived from the Greek verb ἀείδω (aeidō), meaning "to sing." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "ódé," the concept of singing and songs of praise is prevalent in the Hebrew Bible, often represented by words like שִׁיר (shir, Strong's H7892) meaning "song." Usage: The term "ódé" refers to a song or hymn, often used in the context of praise or worship. In the New Testament, it is associated with spiritual songs that are sung to glorify God. The word emphasizes the act of singing as a form of worship and expression of faith. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek culture, odes were lyrical poems or songs that were often performed with musical accompaniment. They were used to celebrate events, honor deities, or express personal emotions. In the context of early Christianity, singing hymns and spiritual songs became an integral part of worship, reflecting the Jewish tradition of psalmody and the communal aspect of early Christian gatherings.
