Strong's Lexicon yabbashah: Dry land, dry ground Original Word: יַבָּשָׂה Word Origin: Derived from the root יָבֵשׁ (yabesh), meaning "to be dry."

Usage: The term "yabbashah" refers to dry land or dry ground, often used in contrast to bodies of water. It signifies the solid ground that appears when waters are parted or recede, as seen in the creation narrative and the crossing of the Red Sea. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the concept of dry land emerging from chaotic waters was a common motif, symbolizing order and stability.
