Strong's Lexicon dober: Word, matter, thing Original Word: דֹּבֶר Word Origin: Derived from the root דָּבַר (dabar), which means "to speak" or "to declare." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - λόγος (logos) - Strong's Greek 3056: Often translated as "word," "speech," or "message," and used in the New Testament to refer to both human and divine communication. - ῥῆμα (rhema) - Strong's Greek 4487: Refers to an utterance or spoken word, often used to denote a specific word or saying. Usage: The Hebrew word "dober" primarily refers to a "word" or "matter." It is used to denote a spoken word, a command, or a matter of concern. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it often signifies a divine word or command, reflecting the importance of God's spoken word in the life of Israel. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, words held significant power and authority. The spoken word was not merely a means of communication but was believed to have the power to effect change and bring about reality. This is especially true of the words spoken by God, which were seen as creative and authoritative. The concept of "dober" as a divine word underscores the belief in the efficacy and reliability of God's promises and commands.
