Word Origin: The origin of the word תִּדְהָר (tidhar) is uncertain, but it is a Hebrew term used in the context of trees.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "tidhar" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew term for a type of tree. However, Greek words related to trees, such as δένδρον (dendron, Strong's G1186), may be used in similar contexts in the New Testament.

Usage: The word "tidhar" refers to a type of tree, often translated as "pine" or "cypress" in English. It is used in the Bible to describe a tree that is part of the natural beauty and resources of the land of Israel. The term is associated with strength and durability, characteristics of the wood from these trees.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, trees like the tidhar were significant for both practical and symbolic reasons. They provided materials for construction, fuel, and various other uses. Symbolically, trees often represented life, prosperity, and the blessings of God. The tidhar, with its strong and enduring wood, would have been valued for its utility and its representation of stability and resilience.
