Transliteration: yshuw`ah
Pronunciation: yeh-shoo-ah
Phonetic Spelling: (yesh-oo'-aw)
Definition: Salvation, deliverance, victory
Meaning: something saved, deliverance, aid, victory, prosperity

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4991 (σωτηρία, soteria) - salvation

- G4992 (σωτήριον, soterion) - saving, bringing salvation

- G4990 (σωτήρ, soter) - savior

Usage: The Hebrew word "yeshuah" primarily denotes salvation or deliverance, often in the context of divine intervention. It is used to describe the act of being saved from danger, distress, or oppression, and is frequently associated with God's saving acts for His people. The term can also imply victory or success, particularly in battle or conflict, emphasizing the triumph that comes through divine aid.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, salvation was often understood in terms of physical deliverance from enemies or peril. For the Israelites, "yeshuah" was deeply connected to their covenant relationship with Yahweh, who was seen as their ultimate deliverer. This concept of salvation extended beyond mere physical rescue to include spiritual and moral dimensions, reflecting God's ongoing commitment to His people. The term is foundational in understanding the messianic hope and the anticipated deliverance through the coming Messiah.
