Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to defer.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G839 (αὔριον, aurion): This Greek term is used in the New Testament to denote "tomorrow" or "the morrow," similar to the Hebrew מָחָר. It appears in passages such as Matthew 6:34, where Jesus instructs, "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself." Usage: The word מָחָר is used in various contexts throughout the Hebrew Bible to denote the day after the current one or a future time. It is often employed in narrative and prophetic texts to indicate events that will occur soon or in the near future. Context: מָחָר appears frequently in the Hebrew Scriptures, illustrating the anticipation or planning for future events. It is used in both literal and figurative senses. For instance, in Exodus 8:10, Pharaoh responds to Moses regarding the removal of the frogs, saying, "Tomorrow," indicating a specific future time. Similarly, in 1 Samuel 20:5, David speaks to Jonathan about the new moon feast, saying, "Tomorrow is the New Moon feast," again pointing to the immediate future.
