Strong's Lexicon chuqqah: Statute, ordinance, decree, regulation Original Word: חֻקָּה Word Origin: Derived from the root חָקַק (chaqaq), meaning "to engrave" or "to inscribe." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1345 (δικαίωμα, dikaiōma): An ordinance or requirement, often used in the New Testament to refer to righteous acts or decrees. - G3551 (νόμος, nomos): Law, used broadly in the New Testament to refer to the Mosaic Law or divine instructions. Usage: The term "chuqqah" refers to a statute or ordinance, often used in the context of divine laws given by God to the Israelites. It signifies a prescribed rule or regulation that is meant to be followed as part of the covenant relationship between God and His people. These statutes are often seen as permanent and binding, reflecting God's will and order for His people. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, statutes (chuqqot) were integral to the covenantal relationship between God and His people. They were part of the Torah, the law given to Moses on Mount Sinai, and were intended to set Israel apart as a holy nation. These laws covered various aspects of life, including religious rituals, moral conduct, and social justice. Observance of these statutes was a sign of faithfulness to God and was central to the identity and community life of the Israelites.
