Strong's Lexicon shillum: Recompense, reward, restitution Original Word: שִׁלּוּם Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁלַם (shalám), which means "to be complete" or "to make amends." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of recompense or reward is μισθός (misthos - Strong's Greek 3408), which appears in the New Testament in contexts such as Matthew 5:12, "Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven." Usage: The term "shillum" refers to the concept of recompense or restitution, often in the context of making amends or providing a reward. It is used to denote the act of repaying or compensating someone for a loss or injury, aligning with the broader biblical theme of justice and restoration. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, the concept of recompense was integral to maintaining social justice and harmony. The Law of Moses included detailed instructions on restitution for various offenses, emphasizing the importance of restoring what was lost or damaged. This reflects the broader biblical principle that God is a God of justice, who desires His people to live in right relationship with one another.
