Strong's Lexicon bath: Daughter Original Word: בַּת Word Origin: Derived from the root word בֵּן (ben), meaning "son." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2364 θυγάτηρ (thygatēr) – used in the New Testament to mean "daughter." Usage: The Hebrew word "bath" primarily means "daughter" and is used to denote a female child in relation to her parents. It can also be used metaphorically to describe a female inhabitant of a place (e.g., "daughter of Zion") or to personify cities and nations. In some contexts, it can refer to a young woman or a member of a group. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, daughters were valued members of the family, though their roles and rights were often different from those of sons. Daughters were typically involved in domestic duties and were considered under the authority of their fathers until marriage. Marriages were often arranged, and daughters were given in marriage to form alliances and continue family lineage. The concept of "daughter" also extended to cities and nations, reflecting a familial relationship between the people and their land or deity.
