Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the root verb קָנָה (qanah), which means "to acquire" or "to purchase."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2934: κτίσις (ktisis) • Refers to creation or the act of creating, often used in the New Testament to describe the created world or the act of creation by God.
• G2937: κτίσμα (ktisma) • Refers to a creature or creation, emphasizing the result of the creative act, often used to denote the creatures or things created by God.

These Greek terms parallel the Hebrew concept of קִנְיָן (Qinyan) in their focus on creation and the things that are created or acquired, underscoring the continuity of these themes across the biblical narrative.

Usage: The word קִנְיָן is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote various forms of acquisition, whether material wealth, property, or even the act of creation itself. It is often associated with the idea of ownership and the things that are owned.

Context: • קִנְיָן (Qinyan) appears in several contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, illustrating the breadth of its meaning. It is used to describe both tangible and intangible acquisitions.
• In Genesis 14:19, it is used in the context of God as the "Possessor of heaven and earth," highlighting divine ownership and creation: "and he blessed Abram and said, 'Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth.'"
• In Psalm 104:24, it reflects the manifold works of God in creation: "How many are Your works, O LORD! In wisdom You have made them all; the earth is full of Your creatures."
• The term also appears in the context of human acquisition and wealth, as seen in Ezekiel 28:5, where it refers to the accumulation of wealth through trade: "By your great skill in trading you have increased your wealth, but your heart has grown proud because of it."
• קִנְיָן (Qinyan) thus serves as a reminder of both divine creation and human stewardship, emphasizing the responsibility that comes with ownership and the recognition of God as the ultimate Creator and Owner.
