Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁנָה (shanah), which means "to repeat" or "to do again."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: G2087 (ἕτερος, heteros): Often translated as "another" or "different," this Greek term can be used in contexts similar to שֵׁנִי (sheni) when indicating a second or alternative option.
G4618 (σάββατον, sabbaton): While primarily referring to the Sabbath, this term can relate to sequences of days, similar to how שֵׁנִי (sheni) is used to denote the second day or event in a sequence.

In summary, שֵׁנִי (sheni) is a versatile term in the Hebrew Bible, used to denote order, repetition, and doubling, with significant implications in both legal and narrative contexts.

Usage: The word שֵׁנִי (sheni) is used in various contexts in the Hebrew Bible, including:
• Indicating the second in a series (e.g., second day, second month).
• Describing something that is double or repeated.
• Used in ordinal sequences to denote the position following the first.

Context: שֵׁנִי (sheni) is a common term in the Hebrew Bible, appearing in contexts that require the identification of sequence or repetition. It is often used in the Pentateuch to specify the second day of creation (Genesis 1:8), the second month (Numbers 1:1), or the second year (Exodus 12:6). The term also appears in legal and ritual contexts, such as the "second tithe" (Deuteronomy 14:22-29) and the "second Passover" (Numbers 9:10-11), which provided an opportunity for those who were unclean or on a journey during the first Passover to observe the feast in the second month.

In historical narratives, שֵׁנִי (sheni) is used to denote the second in a line of succession or events, such as the second king of Israel, Ish-bosheth (2 Samuel 2:8-10), or the second year of a king's reign (1 Kings 15:25). The term also appears in prophetic literature, where it can symbolize a repeated or intensified action, as in the "second time" the Lord speaks or acts (Isaiah 11:11).

The concept of "double" is also present in the use of שֵׁנִי (sheni), as seen in the description of a "double portion" (2 Kings 2:9) or "double recompense" (Isaiah 61:7), emphasizing abundance or completeness.
