Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root יָבַל (yabal), which means "to bring" or "to carry along."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence between Hebrew and Greek terms in Strong's Concordance, the concept of a stream or river can be related to Greek terms such as ποταμός (potamos, Strong's Greek 4215), which means "river" or "stream." This Greek term is used in the New Testament to describe bodies of flowing water, similar to the Hebrew אוּבָל. Usage: The term אוּבָל is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe natural watercourses that provide sustenance and life to the surrounding regions. It is often associated with fertility and abundance due to the life-giving properties of water. Context: • The Hebrew word אוּבָל appears in the context of describing natural watercourses that are essential for the sustenance of life in arid regions. In the ancient Near East, streams and rivers were vital for agriculture, providing necessary irrigation for crops and serving as a source of drinking water for both humans and animals.
