Strong's Lexicon techinnah: Supplication, plea, entreaty Original Word: תְּחִנָּה Word Origin: Derived from the root חָנַן (chanan), meaning "to be gracious" or "to show favor." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1162 (δέησις, deēsis) - often translated as "supplication" or "prayer" in the New Testament, reflecting a similar sense of earnest entreaty. Usage: The term "techinnah" refers to a heartfelt plea or supplication, often directed towards God. It conveys a sense of earnestness and humility, reflecting the supplicant's recognition of their dependence on divine grace and mercy. In the Hebrew Bible, "techinnah" is used to describe prayers that seek God's favor, intervention, or forgiveness. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, prayer was a central aspect of religious life, serving as a means of communication with God. Supplications like "techinnah" were often made in times of distress, need, or repentance. The Israelites believed in a personal and covenantal relationship with God, who was both just and merciful. Thus, "techinnah" reflects the deep trust in God's character and His willingness to respond to the cries of His people.
