Topical Lexicon Word Origin: AramaicCorresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Greek Number 3778: οὗτος (houtos) • This, these Usage: The Aramaic word דָּא is used as a demonstrative pronoun meaning "this." It appears in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, specifically in the books of Daniel and Ezra. Context: The Aramaic term דָּא (da) is a demonstrative pronoun used to indicate a specific object or concept that is near in context or thought. It is equivalent to the Hebrew זֶה (zeh) and the Greek οὗτος (houtos). In the context of the Old Testament, דָּא is found in the Aramaic sections of the books of Daniel and Ezra, which were written during the period of the Babylonian exile and the subsequent Persian period. These sections reflect the linguistic environment of the Jewish people during their captivity and interactions with the surrounding cultures. The use of Aramaic in these texts highlights the historical and cultural setting of the Jewish exiles, who adopted Aramaic as a lingua franca. The word דָּא is used to specify or emphasize a particular subject or object within the narrative, often in legal or formal declarations. For example, in Daniel 2:36, the phrase "This is the dream" uses דָּא to introduce the interpretation of King Nebuchadnezzar's dream.
