Strong's Lexicon tsarach: To cry out, to shout Original Word: צָרַח Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: tsarach Pronunciation: tsaw-rahkh' Phonetic Spelling: (tsaw-rakh') Definition: To cry out, to shout Meaning: to be clear, to whoop Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint (LXX) for similar expressions of crying out is "κραζω" (Strong's Greek 2896), which also means to cry out or shout. Usage: The Hebrew verb "tsarach" primarily means to cry out or to shout, often in a loud or urgent manner. It conveys a sense of desperation or intense emotion, typically in the context of seeking help or expressing distress. This term is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe both literal and metaphorical cries, whether from individuals or groups. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, crying out was a common expression of deep emotion, whether in times of distress, worship, or communal gatherings. The act of crying out to God was seen as a demonstration of faith and reliance on divine intervention. In a historical context, such cries were often associated with moments of national crisis, personal anguish, or fervent prayer.
