Strong's Lexicon mibtach: Trust, confidence, security, assurance Original Word: מִבְטָח Word Origin: Derived from the root בָּטַח (batach), which means "to trust" or "to be confident." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G4006: πεποίθησις (pepoithesis) - meaning confidence or trust. - G4102: πίστις (pistis) - meaning faith or belief. Usage: The Hebrew word "mibtach" conveys a sense of trust, confidence, or security. It is often used in the context of placing one's trust in God or in something that provides a sense of safety and assurance. The term emphasizes a reliance on something or someone that is dependable and trustworthy. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, trust and security were paramount in a society that faced constant threats from surrounding nations and natural challenges. The concept of "mibtach" would have resonated deeply with the Israelites, who were called to place their trust in Yahweh rather than in military might or foreign alliances. This trust was not merely an abstract concept but a practical reliance on God's covenant promises and His faithfulness to His people.
