Strong's Lexicon yaqa: To dislocate, to be alienated, to be removed Original Word: יָקַע Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "yaqa," the concept of alienation or separation can be found in Greek terms such as ἀποξενόω (apoxenoō - to estrange) and ἀποσπάω (apospaō - to tear away). Usage: The Hebrew verb "yaqa" primarily means to dislocate or to be alienated. It conveys the idea of something being forcibly removed or separated from its original position or context. This term can be used both in a physical sense, such as the dislocation of a joint, and in a metaphorical sense, such as the alienation of a person or group. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, physical health and wholeness were often seen as reflections of spiritual and communal well-being. The dislocation of a joint, for example, would not only be a physical ailment but could also symbolize a disruption in one's relationship with God or the community. Alienation, whether physical or social, was a significant concern in a society that valued community and covenant relationships.
