Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4139 (πλησίον, plēsion): Often translated as "neighbor" in the New Testament, reflecting similar relational and communal aspects. Usage: The Hebrew word "shaken" primarily refers to a neighbor or someone who dwells nearby. It is used to describe individuals who live in close proximity to one another, emphasizing the relational aspect of community living. The term can also extend to mean an inhabitant of a particular place, highlighting the concept of dwelling or residing within a community or land. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of a "neighbor" was deeply rooted in the communal and covenantal life of the people. The Israelites were commanded to love their neighbors as themselves (Leviticus 19:18), which underscored the importance of harmonious and just relationships within the community. The idea of dwelling or residing was not merely about physical proximity but also about shared life, mutual responsibility, and covenantal faithfulness.
