Strong's Lexicon chasid: Faithful, godly, holy, pious, kind Original Word: חָסִיד Word Origin: Derived from the root חָסַד (chasad), which means "to be kind" or "to show mercy." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3741 (hosios) - often translated as "holy" or "pious." - G2152 (eusebes) - meaning "godly" or "devout." Usage: The term "chasid" is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe individuals who are characterized by their piety, faithfulness, and devotion to God. It often refers to those who are loyal to God's covenant and exhibit kindness and mercy towards others. The word can denote both a personal attribute of godliness and a communal identity of those who are devoted to living according to God's laws. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, being a "chasid" was closely associated with living in accordance with the covenantal relationship established between God and His people. This involved adherence to the Torah, participation in religious rituals, and a commitment to ethical behavior. The concept of chasidut (piety) was central to the identity of the Israelite community, emphasizing a life of holiness and service to God.
