Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root נָעַר (na'ar), which means "to shake" or "to shake off."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G3501 (νέος, neos): Often used to describe someone who is young or new, similar to the youthful aspect of "na'ar." Usage: The word "na'ar" is used in various contexts within the Hebrew Bible, often to describe a young man or a servant. It can also imply someone who is unsettled or in a state of wandering. Context: The Hebrew term נַעַר (na'ar) appears in several contexts throughout the Old Testament. It is frequently used to describe a young man or a servant, as seen in Genesis 37:2, where Joseph is referred to as a "na'ar" when he is tending the flocks with his brothers. The term can also imply a sense of immaturity or inexperience, as in 1 Samuel 17:33, where David is described as a "na'ar" when he volunteers to fight Goliath.
