Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from an unused root probably meaning to be fleet.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek term for a ship is πλοῖον (G4143), which appears frequently in the New Testament. Like its Hebrew counterpart, πλοῖον is used to describe seafaring vessels, as seen in passages such as Matthew 4:21: "Going on from there, He saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets. Jesus called them." This Greek term similarly emphasizes the importance of ships in the context of travel, trade, and the spread of the Gospel. Usage: The term אֱנִיָּה is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to ships, often in the context of maritime trade, naval power, or metaphorical imagery. Context: The Hebrew word אֱנִיָּה (eniya) appears in several passages throughout the Old Testament, illustrating the significance of ships in ancient Israelite culture and economy. Ships were vital for trade and transportation, connecting distant lands and facilitating the exchange of goods and ideas. In the Bible, ships are often associated with wealth and commerce, as seen in passages like 1 Kings 10:22, where King Solomon's fleet is described: "For the king had the ships of Tarshish at sea with Hiram’s fleet. Once every three years the ships of Tarshish would arrive bearing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks."
