Strong's Lexicon nadad: To flee, to wander, to move to and fro, to flutter Original Word: נָדַד Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct one-to-one correspondence, the Greek word "φεύγω" (pheugō, Strong's G5343) meaning "to flee" or "to escape" can be seen as a conceptual parallel in the New Testament. Usage: The Hebrew verb "nadad" primarily conveys the idea of movement, often in the context of fleeing or wandering. It can describe physical movement away from a place or situation, as well as a more abstract sense of restlessness or instability. The term is used to depict both literal and metaphorical flight, such as fleeing from danger or experiencing a lack of peace. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of fleeing or wandering was significant, as it often related to themes of exile, displacement, and divine judgment. The Israelites' history includes periods of wandering, such as the 40 years in the wilderness, which shaped their identity and relationship with God. The idea of restlessness or instability could also reflect spiritual or moral conditions, emphasizing the need for divine guidance and stability.
