Strong's Lexicon Noach: Noah Original Word: נֹחַ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root נוּחַ (nuach), meaning "to rest" or "to settle down." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3575 (Νῶε, Noe): The Greek transliteration of Noah, used in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 24:37-38 and Hebrews 11:7. Usage: The name "Noach" means "rest" or "comfort." In the Bible, Noah is a central figure known for his righteousness and obedience to God. He is most famously recognized for building the ark that preserved his family and pairs of every living creature during the great flood, as described in Genesis. Cultural and Historical Background: Noah lived in a time of great wickedness on the earth, as described in Genesis 6. God chose Noah to survive the flood because he was "a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked faithfully with God" (Genesis 6:9, BSB). The account of Noah is significant in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions, symbolizing God's judgment and mercy. The flood narrative is also seen as a type of baptism, representing cleansing and new beginnings.
