Strong's Lexicon sheroshu or sheroshi: Root, foundation Original Word: שְׁרשׁוּ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root שָׁרַשׁ (sharash), meaning "to root" or "to take root." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and New Testament is ῥίζα (rhiza), Strong's Greek #4491, which also means "root." Usage: The term "sheroshu" or "sheroshi" is used to denote the concept of a root or foundation, both in a literal and metaphorical sense. It can refer to the physical roots of a plant or tree, as well as the foundational principles or origins of a concept, belief, or lineage. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, roots were often symbolic of stability, growth, and origin. The root of a plant was seen as its source of life and nourishment, and metaphorically, it represented the underlying principles or ancestry of a person or nation. This symbolism is prevalent in biblical literature, where roots often signify the strength and endurance of faith, lineage, or divine promises.
