Strong's Lexicon Yeuts: Counselor, advice, counsel Original Word: יְעוּץ Word Origin: Derived from the root יָעַץ (ya'ats), meaning "to advise" or "to counsel." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is συμβουλος (sumboulos), meaning "counselor" or "advisor." Usage: The term "Yeuts" refers to a counselor or one who provides advice. In the biblical context, it often denotes someone who offers guidance, wisdom, or strategic planning. The role of a counselor was highly esteemed in ancient Israel, as wise counsel was considered essential for making sound decisions, whether in personal matters, governance, or warfare. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, counselors were crucial figures, often serving kings and leaders. Their advice could determine the outcome of battles, the success of political alliances, and the moral direction of the nation.

The role of a counselor was not only practical but also spiritual, as they were expected to align their advice with God's will and the covenantal laws.
