Berean Strong's Lexicon halik: Walk, journey, path Original Word: הֲלִיק Word Origin: Derived from the root verb הָלַךְ (halak), meaning "to walk" or "to go." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is περιπατέω (peripateo - Strong's Greek 4043), which also means "to walk" or "to conduct one's life." Usage: The term "halik" is used to denote a journey or the act of walking. It often implies a path or course of life, reflecting one's conduct or manner of living. In the Hebrew Bible, it can refer to both physical journeys and metaphorical paths, such as one's spiritual or moral direction. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, walking was the primary mode of transportation, and journeys were significant undertakings. The concept of a "path" or "way" was deeply embedded in the Hebrew mindset, often symbolizing one's life choices and moral direction. The Israelites understood their covenant relationship with God as a journey, with the Law serving as a guide for righteous living.
