Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to gather.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G758 (ἄρχων, archon): A ruler or leader, often used in the context of governance or authority over a community or nation. Usage: The term לְאֹם (le'om) is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a group of people or a nation. It often denotes a collective body of individuals bound together by common identity or purpose. Context: לְאֹם (le'om) appears in the Hebrew Bible to describe a community or nation, often in contexts that emphasize the distinct identity or destiny of a people group. The term is used in various passages to highlight the relationships and interactions between different nations or communities. For example, in Genesis 25:23, the word is used in the prophecy concerning the descendants of Isaac, where it is stated, "Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples from within you will be separated; one people will be stronger than the other, and the older will serve the younger." This passage underscores the idea of distinct communities with separate destinies.
