It is closely related to the concept of initiation, suggesting a process of being brought into a particular role or function through education or practice. The root חָנַךְ (chanak) is more commonly associated with the idea of dedicating or training, as seen in Proverbs 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it."

The term חָנִיךְ (chanik) itself is less frequently used, which may suggest its application to specific individuals or groups who have undergone a formal process of preparation.
