Strong's Lexicon moad: Appointed time, meeting, assembly, festival Original Word: מוֹעָד Word Origin: Derived from the root יָעַד (ya'ad), meaning "to appoint" or "to fix." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2540 - kairos: Often translated as "appointed time" or "season," reflecting the concept of a divinely ordained moment. - G4864 - synagoge: While primarily meaning "assembly" or "gathering," it can relate to the idea of a set time for gathering. Usage: The term "mo'ed" primarily refers to an appointed time or place, often used in the context of sacred festivals or assemblies. It signifies a divinely appointed time for worship, celebration, or gathering. In the Hebrew Bible, "mo'ed" is frequently associated with the festivals and holy convocations established by God for the Israelites, such as the Passover, Feast of Weeks, and Feast of Tabernacles. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, "mo'ed" was integral to the religious and social life of the community. These appointed times were not only opportunities for worship and sacrifice but also for communal gathering and remembrance of God's covenant and acts of deliverance. The concept of "mo'ed" underscores the importance of time and rhythm in the spiritual life of Israel, as these festivals were tied to the agricultural calendar and the history of the people.
