Strong's Lexicon moshaah: Deliverance, Salvation Original Word: מוֹשָׁעָה Word Origin: Derived from the root יָשַׁע (yasha), meaning "to save" or "to deliver." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is σωτηρία (soteria), which also means salvation or deliverance. This term is found in passages such as Luke 1:69 and Acts 4:12. Usage: The term "moshaah" refers to the concept of deliverance or salvation, often in the context of divine intervention or rescue from danger. It is used to describe the act of being saved or delivered, typically by God, from physical or spiritual peril. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of deliverance was central to the people's understanding of their relationship with God. The Israelites often found themselves in situations of distress, whether due to external threats from enemy nations or internal struggles with sin and disobedience. The idea of God as a deliverer is a recurring theme throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, reflecting the belief in His power and willingness to save His people. This concept is deeply rooted in the covenant relationship between God and Israel, where God promises to be their protector and savior.
