Open in Concordance
Part of Speech: Proper Noun
Sounds like: iss-rah-EL
Translations: Israel
Notes: This word refers to Israel, which can denote either the patriarch Jacob (who was renamed Israel), the nation descended from him, or the land occupied by the Israelites. The apostrophe-like character at the end (keraia) indicates that this is a numerical value, specifically the number 1000 + 200 + 6 + 100 + 1 + 8 + 30 = 1365. However, in ancient Greek texts, it is far more common for proper nouns to appear without diacritics, and the keraia is often used to mark numbers. Given the context of ancient Greek texts, it is overwhelmingly likely that this refers to the proper noun 'Israel' rather than a number. The keraia might be a scribal mark or a misinterpretation of a breathing mark in some contexts, but its primary function when attached to a word like this is to denote a number. Therefore, while it could theoretically be interpreted as the number 1365, its most probable meaning in a biblical or historical context is the proper noun 'Israel'.
Inflection: Does not inflect (as a proper noun)
Etymology: The name 'Israel' is of Hebrew origin, meaning 'God strives' or 'he strives with God'. It was given to Jacob after he wrestled with an angel or God.
