Strong's Lexicon chava: To show, declare, make known Original Word: חֲוָא Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of declaring or making known is "ἀναγγέλλω" (anaggellō - Strong's Greek 312), which also means to announce or report. Usage: The Hebrew verb "chava" primarily means to declare or make known. It is used in contexts where information, intentions, or declarations are being communicated. This verb emphasizes the act of revealing or expressing something that was previously hidden or unknown. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, communication and the declaration of intentions or truths were vital for maintaining social and religious order. The act of making something known was often associated with divine revelation or the sharing of wisdom. The Hebrew language, with its rich verb system, captures the nuances of communication, and "chava" is one such verb that underscores the importance of revelation and declaration in both personal and communal contexts.
