Strong's Lexicon teqa: To thrust, drive, clap, blow, strike Original Word: תֵּקַע Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4537 (salpizo): To sound a trumpet - G5180 (tupto): To strike, smite Usage: The Hebrew verb "teqa" primarily conveys the action of thrusting or driving something with force. It is often used in the context of blowing a trumpet or horn, clapping hands, or striking an object. The term can imply a sudden or forceful action, often associated with a call to attention or a signal for action. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the blowing of a trumpet or shofar was a significant event, often used to signal the beginning of festivals, to call people to worship, or to alert them to impending danger. The act of clapping hands could be a gesture of joy, approval, or even derision, depending on the context. The use of "teqa" in these contexts highlights the importance of sound and physical gestures in communication and religious practices in biblical times.
