Strong's Lexicon din: To judge, to contend, to plead Original Word: דִּין Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2919 (κρίνω, krinō) - to judge, to decide - G2920 (κρίσις, krisis) - judgment, decision Usage: The Hebrew verb "din" primarily means to judge or to execute judgment. It conveys the act of discerning right from wrong, making decisions, and administering justice. In the biblical context, it often refers to God's judgment or the role of leaders and judges in Israel who were responsible for maintaining justice and righteousness among the people. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of judgment was central to maintaining social order and covenantal faithfulness. Judges were appointed to resolve disputes, ensure justice, and uphold the laws given by God. The role of a judge was not only legal but also spiritual, as they were seen as representatives of God's justice on earth. The idea of divine judgment was also prevalent, with God being the ultimate judge who would hold nations and individuals accountable for their actions.
