Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root שֵׁם (shem), meaning "name."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "Hashem" in the Strong's Concordance, as it is a uniquely Hebrew term reflecting Jewish tradition. However, in the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, the Tetragrammaton is often rendered as "κύριος" (kyrios), meaning "Lord," which is Strong's Greek Number 2962. This reflects a similar practice of using a title in place of the divine name. Usage: In Jewish practice, "Hashem" is used in prayer and religious study as a substitute for the divine name, especially in contexts where the Tetragrammaton would traditionally be used. It is not directly found in the Hebrew Bible but is a post-biblical term that reflects reverence for the divine name. Context: "Hashem" is a term that has developed within Jewish tradition as a respectful way to refer to God without using the Tetragrammaton, which is considered too sacred to be spoken aloud. The practice of using "Hashem" underscores the deep reverence and awe associated with the divine name. In the Hebrew Bible, God is referred to by various names and titles, but the Tetragrammaton is the most sacred. Over time, as the pronunciation of YHWH was lost and the name was considered too holy to utter, "Hashem" became a common substitute in Jewish liturgy and study. This practice highlights the importance of the divine name in Jewish theology and the care taken to honor it.
