Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Aramaic, corresponding to the Hebrew אֵלֶּה (elleh)

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in the Strong's Concordance is G1565 (ἐκεῖνος, ekeinos), which also functions as a demonstrative pronoun meaning "that" or "those." While ἐκεῖνος is used in the Greek New Testament to refer to people or things that are more distant or have been previously mentioned, it serves a similar grammatical function to אִלֵּךְ in terms of pointing out specific entities within the text.

Usage: The term אִלֵּךְ is used in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament to denote "these," typically referring to people, objects, or concepts that are near or have been previously mentioned.

Context: The Aramaic word אִלֵּךְ (illek) appears in the context of the Aramaic sections of the Old Testament, specifically in the books of Daniel and Ezra. It functions as a demonstrative pronoun, similar to its Hebrew counterpart אֵלֶּה (elleh), and is used to point out specific items or groups that are in close proximity or have been previously identified in the narrative. In the book of Daniel, for example, it is used to refer to the wise men of Babylon in Daniel 2:13, "So the decree went out, and the wise men were about to be executed; and they sought Daniel and his companions to kill them." The use of אִלֵּךְ in these contexts underscores the narrative's focus on particular individuals or groups, emphasizing their role or significance in the unfolding events.
