Strong's Lexicon yissor: Discipline, correction, chastisement Original Word: יִסּוֹר Word Origin: Derived from the root יָסַר (yasar), which means to discipline, chasten, or instruct. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3809 (παιδεία, paideia) - Refers to training, instruction, or discipline. - G3811 (παιδεύω, paideuō) - To train up a child, to educate, or to discipline. Usage: The term "yissor" refers to the concept of discipline or correction, often in the context of moral or spiritual instruction. It is used to describe the process by which God or a human authority figure corrects or instructs someone to guide them back to the right path. This discipline is not merely punitive but is intended for the growth and betterment of the individual. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, discipline was an integral part of education and moral upbringing. The concept of yissor is deeply rooted in the covenant relationship between God and His people, where God acts as a father who disciplines His children for their own good. This reflects the broader Ancient Near Eastern understanding of discipline as a necessary component of wisdom and maturity.
