Strong's Lexicon tehillah: Praise, song of praise, adoration, glory Original Word: תְּהִלָּה Word Origin: Derived from the root verb הָלַל (halal), which means "to praise" or "to boast." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1868 (epainos): Praise, commendation - G134 (aineo): To praise, extol Usage: The term "tehillah" primarily refers to a form of praise or a song of praise directed towards God. It is often used in the context of worship and adoration, emphasizing the act of glorifying God for His attributes, deeds, and character. The word can also denote the content of the praise itself, such as a hymn or a psalm. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, praise was an integral part of religious life and worship. The Israelites expressed their devotion and gratitude to God through songs and hymns, often accompanied by musical instruments. The Book of Psalms, known as "Tehillim" in Hebrew, is a collection of such praises. These songs were used in both personal and communal worship settings, reflecting the deep relationship between the people and their God.
