Strong's Lexicon mopheth: Sign, wonder, miracle Original Word: מוֹפֵת Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to be conspicuous Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4592 (σημεῖον, sēmeion): Sign, miracle - G5059 (τέρας, teras): Wonder, marvel Usage: The Hebrew word "mopheth" is used to describe extraordinary events that serve as signs or wonders, often indicating divine intervention or authority. These events are typically beyond human capability and are meant to demonstrate the power and presence of God. In the Old Testament, "mopheth" is frequently associated with the miraculous acts performed by God, especially in the context of delivering His people or affirming His messengers. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, signs and wonders were often seen as manifestations of divine power. The Israelites, surrounded by polytheistic cultures, understood "mopheth" as a testament to the one true God's supremacy over all other deities. These miraculous events were not only demonstrations of power but also served as confirmations of God's covenant with Israel and His ongoing involvement in their history.
