Strong's Lexicon notsah: Blossom, Flower Original Word: נוֹצָה Word Origin: Derived from the root נָצָה (natsah), which means to sprout or to flourish. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's Greek 438: ἄνθος (anthos) – meaning flower or blossom, used in the New Testament to convey similar imagery of beauty and transience. Usage: The term "notsah" refers to a blossom or flower, often used metaphorically in the Hebrew Bible to symbolize beauty, transience, and the flourishing of life. It captures the essence of something that is both delicate and vibrant, often used to describe the fleeting nature of life and the beauty of creation. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, flowers and blossoms were significant in daily life and religious symbolism. They were seen as representations of God's creation and the beauty of the natural world. The Israelites, living in an agrarian society, would have been intimately familiar with the cycles of growth and decay, making the imagery of blossoms particularly poignant. Flowers were also used in various religious ceremonies and as metaphors in poetry and wisdom literature.
