Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root יָוָה (yaw-vah'), which is not used in the Hebrew Bible but is related to the concept of effervescence or bubbling up.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek term in the Strong's Concordance is G5208 (ὑποκάτω, hypokatō), which means "underneath" or "below." While not a direct translation of יָוֵן, it shares the concept of something being at the bottom or beneath, similar to how dregs settle at the bottom of a container. The Greek term is used in the New Testament to describe things that are beneath or under, often in a literal sense, but can also carry metaphorical implications of being lesser or inferior. Usage: The word יָוֵן appears in the Hebrew Bible in contexts that describe the residue or sediment left behind, often in a metaphorical sense to convey impurity or worthlessness. Context: יָוֵן (Yaven) is a Hebrew term that appears in the Old Testament to describe dregs or sediment, particularly in the context of wine. The imagery of dregs is used to convey the idea of something that is left over, unwanted, or impure. In the ancient world, dregs were considered the least desirable part of a liquid, often associated with waste or refuse. The metaphorical use of יָוֵן in the Bible can be seen in passages where the prophets speak against the moral and spiritual impurities of the people, likening them to the dregs of wine that must be discarded. This term underscores the biblical theme of purity and the need to separate the valuable from the worthless.
