Strong's Lexicon batach: Trust, rely, be confident, feel secure Original Word: בָּטח Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3982 (peitho): To persuade, to have confidence - G4100 (pisteuo): To believe, to have faith Usage: The Hebrew verb "batach" primarily conveys the idea of trust or confidence. It is used to describe a sense of security and reliance, often in the context of trusting in God, His promises, or His protection. The term implies a firm belief in the reliability, truth, or ability of someone or something. In the biblical context, "batach" is frequently associated with faith and dependence on God rather than on human strength or wisdom. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, trust was a fundamental aspect of the covenant relationship between God and His people. The Israelites were called to trust in Yahweh as their protector and provider, distinguishing themselves from surrounding nations that relied on idols or military might. Trusting in God was not merely an abstract concept but a practical expression of faith, often demonstrated through obedience and worship. The cultural context of the ancient Near East, with its frequent conflicts and uncertainties, made the concept of trust in a divine protector particularly significant.
