Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint (LXX) for דָּבָר (dabar) is λόγος (logos), Strong's Greek #3056, which also means "word" or "matter" and carries similar connotations of divine communication and authority. Usage: The term "dabbarah" or "dabbereth" is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a word, matter, or thing. It often refers to a spoken word or a matter of importance. The root דָּבַר (dabar) is frequently associated with communication, whether divine or human, and can imply a command, promise, or decree.
