Strong's Lexicon Yachzerah: Return, go back Original Word: יַחְזֵרָה Word Origin: Derived from the root חָזַר (chazar), meaning "to return" or "to go back." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for the concept of returning is ἐπιστρέφω (epistrephō), Strong's Greek #1994, which also means "to turn back" or "to return." Usage: The verb יַחְזְרָה (Yachzerah) is used to denote the action of returning or going back to a previous state or place. It often implies a physical return to a location or a metaphorical return to a previous condition or relationship, such as returning to God or to a former way of life. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of returning was significant both physically and spiritually. The Israelites often faced exile and displacement, making the idea of returning to their homeland a powerful theme. Spiritually, returning to God was a central message of the prophets, calling the people to repentance and restoration of their covenant relationship with Yahweh.
