Strong's Lexicon maalal: Deed, act, practice, work Original Word: מַעֲלָל Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: maalal Pronunciation: mah-ah-LAHL Phonetic Spelling: (mah-al-awl') Definition: Deed, act, practice, work Meaning: an act Word Origin: Derived from the root עָלַל (alal), which means "to act" or "to do." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is ἔργον (ergon), Strong's Greek 2041, which also means "work" or "deed." Usage: The Hebrew word "maalal" refers to actions or deeds, often with a moral or ethical connotation. It is used to describe the works or practices of individuals, whether good or evil. The term can denote the general conduct of a person or specific acts that reflect one's character. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, deeds and actions were seen as reflections of one's inner character and relationship with God. The Hebrew Scriptures emphasize the importance of righteous deeds as evidence of faithfulness to God's covenant. The concept of "maalal" underscores the biblical principle that actions speak louder than words, and that one's deeds are a testament to their faith and obedience to God.
