Topical Lexicon

Word Origin: Derived from the root verb נוּב (nuv), which means "to bear fruit" or "to produce."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G1080 (γεννάω, gennao): This Greek term means "to beget" or "to bring forth," often used in the New Testament to describe the act of producing or giving birth, both physically and metaphorically.
• G2590 (καρπός, karpos): This Greek word translates to "fruit" or "produce," similar to תְּנוּבָה, and is used in the New Testament to describe both literal fruit and metaphorical fruit, such as the fruits of the Spirit or the results of one's actions.

Usage: The word תְּנוּבָה is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe the produce or yield of the land, often in the context of blessings or abundance provided by God. It is typically associated with agricultural prosperity and the results of cultivation.

Context: תְּנוּבָה (tenuvah) appears in several passages within the Hebrew Bible, emphasizing the concept of agricultural abundance and divine blessing. It is often used to describe the bountiful yield of the land, which is seen as a sign of God's favor and provision. For example, in Deuteronomy 32:13-14, the term is used to illustrate the richness of the land that God provided to the Israelites: "He made him ride on the heights of the land and fed him with the produce of the fields. He nourished him with honey from the rock and oil from the flinty crag, with curds from the herd and milk from the flock, with fattened lambs and goats, with the choicest rams of Bashan and the finest kernels of wheat. You drank the foaming blood of the grape."

The concept of תְּנוּבָה is closely tied to the covenantal relationship between God and Israel, where obedience to God's commandments would result in agricultural prosperity and abundance. This is seen in passages like Leviticus 26:4, where God promises, "I will give you rains in their season, and the land shall yield its produce, and the trees of the field shall bear their fruit."

תְּנוּבָה is also used metaphorically to describe the fruits of one's labor or the results of one's actions, extending beyond the literal agricultural context to encompass broader themes of productivity and blessing.
