Strong's Lexicon penimah: Inwardly, within Original Word: פְנִימָה Word Origin: Derived from the root פָּנִים (panim), meaning "face" or "presence." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts is ἔσω (esō), meaning "inside" or "within." Usage: The Hebrew word "penimah" is used to denote an inward direction or position, often implying a movement or orientation towards the inner parts or the interior. It is used to describe both physical and metaphorical inwardness, such as entering into a space or reflecting on one's inner thoughts or feelings. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of "inward" was significant both in physical terms, such as entering the inner sanctuary of the temple, and in spiritual terms, reflecting on one's inner life and relationship with God. The idea of moving inwardly was often associated with seeking deeper understanding or communion with the divine.
