Strong's Lexicon Charosheth: Charosheth Original Word: חֲרֹשֶׁת Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root חָרַשׁ (charash), meaning "to cut, engrave, or plow." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Charosheth in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a specific Hebrew place name. Usage: Charosheth is a geographical location mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, specifically in the context of the narrative of Deborah and Barak. It is known as "Charosheth of the Gentiles" (Charosheth-ha-Goyim), indicating its association with non-Israelite peoples. Cultural and Historical Background: Charosheth is identified as the home of Sisera, the commander of the Canaanite army under King Jabin of Hazor. The location is significant in the account of Israel's deliverance from Canaanite oppression, as recorded in the Book of Judges. The term "of the Gentiles" suggests that it was a place of mixed or foreign population, possibly serving as a military or administrative center for the Canaanites.
