Strong's Lexicon yachas: To reckon, enroll, genealogically register Original Word: יָחַשׂ Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "yachas," the concept of genealogy and lineage is present in the New Testament. Strong's Greek entries such as G1078 (genea) and G1085 (genos) relate to family, race, or kind, reflecting similar themes of ancestry and descent. Usage: The Hebrew verb "yachas" primarily refers to the act of reckoning or enrolling individuals, particularly in the context of genealogical records. It involves the process of tracing lineage and establishing family connections, often for the purpose of inheritance, tribal affiliation, or fulfilling religious duties. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, genealogy played a crucial role in maintaining tribal identity, inheritance rights, and fulfilling religious obligations. The Israelites placed significant importance on lineage, as it determined one's role and status within the community. Genealogical records were meticulously kept to ensure the purity of the priesthood, the legitimacy of kingship, and the fulfillment of God's promises to the patriarchs. The act of "yachas" was essential for preserving the continuity of the covenant community and ensuring that each tribe and family maintained its rightful place within the nation of Israel.
