Strong's Lexicon Manoach: Manoah Original Word: מָנוֹחַ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root נוּחַ (nuach), meaning "to rest" or "to settle down." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Manoah in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the concept of "rest" can be related to Greek words like ἀνάπαυσις (anapausis - G372) meaning "rest" or "relief." Usage: Manoah is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It means "rest" or "place of rest." Manoah is most notably recognized as the father of Samson, one of the judges of Israel. Cultural and Historical Background: Manoah lived during the period of the Judges, a time characterized by a cyclical pattern of Israel's disobedience, oppression by foreign powers, cries for help, and deliverance through judges raised by God. Manoah was from the tribe of Dan, residing in the town of Zorah. His account is set against the backdrop of Philistine oppression, which lasted for forty years. The narrative of Manoah and his wife highlights themes of divine intervention and the miraculous birth of Samson, who was to begin the deliverance of Israel from the Philistines.
