Strong's Lexicon
hallaz: This, that

Original Word: הַלָּז
Part of Speech: pronoun common
Transliteration: hallaz
Pronunciation: hal-laz'
Phonetic Spelling: (hal-lawz')
Definition: This, that
Meaning: this, that

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root הַל (hal), which is a form of the demonstrative pronoun, often used to specify or emphasize a particular object or person.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: In the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible), the equivalent Greek demonstrative pronouns would be "οὗτος" (houtos) or "ἐκεῖνος" (ekeinos), which also mean "this" or "that."

Usage: The Hebrew word "hallaz" is a demonstrative pronoun used to point out a specific object or person, often with a sense of emphasis or distinction. It is similar to the English words "this" or "that," used to specify something in particular. In Biblical Hebrew, such pronouns are crucial for understanding the focus or subject of a passage.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, demonstrative pronouns like "hallaz" were essential for oral storytelling and written texts, as they helped clarify the subject or object being discussed. This was particularly important in a time when written texts were less common, and oral tradition played a significant role in preserving history and teachings. The use of demonstrative pronouns helped listeners and readers follow the narrative and understand the emphasis placed on certain elements.
