Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root עָנָה (anah), which means "to answer" or "to respond."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence between Hebrew and Greek terms, the concept of a reply or answer in the New Testament can be found in Greek words such as ἀπόκρισις (apokrisis, Strong's Greek 612), meaning "an answer" or "a response," and ἀποκρίνομαι (apokrinomai, Strong's Greek 611), meaning "to answer" or "to reply." These Greek terms capture similar nuances of communication and response as מַעֲנֶה in the Hebrew Bible. Usage: The term מַעֲנֶה is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a verbal response or answer, often in the context of a conversation or dialogue. It can refer to both a direct reply to a question and a more general response to a situation or statement. Context: • The Hebrew word מַעֲנֶה appears in various contexts throughout the Old Testament, emphasizing the importance of communication and the power of words. It is often used in wisdom literature to highlight the value of a thoughtful and appropriate response.
