Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Aramaic root, corresponding to the Hebrew root עלה (alah), meaning "to ascend" or "to go up."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G305 (ἀναβαίνω, anabainō): This Greek verb means "to go up" or "to ascend," similar to the Aramaic סְלִק. It is used in the New Testament to describe physical ascension, such as Jesus ascending to heaven.
• G399 (ἀναφέρω, anapherō): This Greek verb means "to carry up" or "to bring up," often used in the context of offering sacrifices or lifting something to a higher place. It shares the concept of upward movement with סְלִק.

These Greek entries reflect the thematic continuity of ascent and elevation found in both the Old and New Testaments, illustrating the shared linguistic and conceptual heritage between the Hebrew/Aramaic and Greek biblical texts.

Usage: This verb is used in the context of ascending or going up, often in a physical or metaphorical sense. It appears in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra.

Context: The Aramaic verb סְלִק (seliq) is primarily found in the biblical books of Daniel and Ezra, which contain sections written in Aramaic. This verb is used to describe the action of ascending or going up, whether it be physically ascending a location or metaphorically rising in status or position. In the context of the biblical narrative, it often conveys movement towards a higher place or state. For example, in the book of Daniel, the term is used to describe the ascent of individuals or objects, reflecting a change in position or status. The use of סְלִק in these texts highlights the dynamic nature of movement and transformation within the biblical story.
