Strong's Lexicon azar: To help, to support, to assist Original Word: עָזַר Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G997 (boētheō): To help, to come to the aid of - G998 (boēthos): Helper, one who provides aid Usage: The Hebrew verb "azar" primarily means to help or to assist. It conveys the idea of providing aid or support, often in times of need or distress. This term is frequently used in the context of divine assistance, where God is depicted as a helper to His people. It can also refer to human assistance, where individuals support one another. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of help was deeply embedded in the community and religious life. The Israelites often found themselves in situations where they needed divine intervention, whether in battle, personal distress, or national crises. The idea of God as a helper was central to their understanding of His covenant relationship with them. This divine assistance was not just about physical aid but also encompassed spiritual and moral support.
