Topical Lexicon Word Origin: This word is of Aramaic origin, corresponding to the Hebrew root אָרַךְ (arak).Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • While there is no direct Greek equivalent for the Aramaic אֲרַךְ, the concept of suitability or fittingness can be related to Greek terms such as εὔθετος (Strong's Greek 2111), which means "suitable" or "fit." This Greek term is used in the New Testament to describe something that is appropriate or well-suited for a particular purpose. Usage: This term is used in the context of something being appropriate or suitable. It is found in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, specifically in the book of Daniel. Context: • The Aramaic verb אֲרַךְ appears in the book of Daniel, which contains sections written in Aramaic. This word is used to convey the idea of something being suitable or fitting within a given context. In the Berean Standard Bible, the usage of this term can be seen in Daniel 2:31, where it describes the appropriateness of a vision or interpretation. The context of Daniel often involves the interpretation of dreams and visions, where the suitability of the interpretation is crucial for understanding divine messages. The use of אֲרַךְ highlights the importance of appropriateness in the communication of divine truths.
