Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to knead.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct corresponding Strong's Greek entries for the Hebrew proper noun לוּשׁ (Lush), as it is a specific geographical name without a direct Greek equivalent in the Septuagint or New Testament texts.

Usage: The term "Lush" is used in the context of a geographical location mentioned in the Hebrew Bible.

Context: • Lush is identified as a city or region mentioned in the genealogical records of the descendants of Shem, one of Noah's sons. It is referenced in the context of the territories and settlements established by the descendants of Shem. The exact location of Lush is not definitively known, and it is not frequently mentioned in the biblical text, which suggests it may have been a smaller or less significant settlement in the ancient Near East. The name Lush is derived from a root meaning "to knead," which may imply a connection to agriculture or food production, although this is speculative. The historical and archaeological evidence for Lush is limited, and its identification remains uncertain.
