Berean Strong's Lexicon deror: Liberty, freedom, release Original Word: דְּרוֹר Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to move rapidly Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G859 (aphesis): Often translated as "forgiveness" or "release," used in the context of the remission of sins. - G1659 (eleutheria): Meaning "freedom" or "liberty," used in the New Testament to describe the freedom found in Christ. Usage: The Hebrew word "deror" primarily signifies liberty or freedom, often in the context of release from bondage or servitude. It is used to describe the act of setting free, whether it be slaves, captives, or debts. The term embodies the concept of liberation and the restoration of rights and privileges. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of "deror" was deeply embedded in the social and religious fabric of society. The Year of Jubilee, as described in Leviticus 25, was a time when "deror" was proclaimed throughout the land. This year was marked by the release of slaves, the return of property to original owners, and the forgiveness of debts. It was a time of restoration and renewal, reflecting God's desire for justice, mercy, and equality among His people.
