Strong's Lexicon yeda: To know, to perceive, to understand Original Word: יְדַע Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1097 (γινώσκω, ginōskō): To know, to come to know, to recognize - G1921 (ἐπιγινώσκω, epiginōskō): To know fully, to recognize Usage: The Hebrew verb "yeda" primarily conveys the concept of knowing or understanding. It encompasses a range of meanings from intellectual comprehension to experiential knowledge. In the Hebrew Bible, "yeda" is often used to describe the intimate knowledge between individuals, such as between a husband and wife, or between God and His people. It implies a deep, personal, and relational understanding rather than mere factual awareness. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, knowledge was not merely an abstract concept but was deeply tied to experience and relationship. The Hebrew understanding of knowledge involved the whole person—mind, heart, and actions. This holistic view is reflected in the use of "yeda" in the Scriptures, where knowing God is portrayed as an intimate, covenantal relationship rather than just intellectual assent.
