Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Aramaic, corresponding to the Hebrew זָכָר (zakar)Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Greek Number 730: ἄρσην (arsen) • male Usage: The term is used in the context of describing male animals, particularly sheep, in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament. Context: The Aramaic term דְּכַר (dekar) appears in the context of the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Daniel, which contains sections written in Aramaic. This term is used to denote a male sheep or ram, highlighting its significance in sacrificial and pastoral contexts. In ancient Near Eastern cultures, male sheep were often valued for their role in breeding and as sacrificial animals. The use of דְּכַר in the biblical text underscores the importance of these animals in the agrarian and religious life of the Israelites and their neighbors. The term is a direct Aramaic counterpart to the Hebrew זָכָר (zakar), which also means "male" and is used more broadly in the Hebrew Bible to refer to male humans and animals alike.
