Strong's Lexicon Achlab: Achlab Original Word: אַחְלָב Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חָלַב (chalab), meaning "milk." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Achlab in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew place name without a direct counterpart in the Greek New Testament. Usage: Achlab is a proper noun used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a specific location. The name itself is thought to mean "fertile" or "place of milk," suggesting a land of abundance and productivity. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near East, names often carried significant meanings related to the characteristics or the history of a place. The name Achlab, with its root meaning "milk," implies a region known for its fertility and agricultural productivity. This aligns with the biblical portrayal of the Promised Land as a land "flowing with milk and honey" (Exodus 3:8, BSB), symbolizing prosperity and divine blessing.
