Strong's Lexicon manon: Dwelling place, habitation Original Word: מָנוֹן Word Origin: Derived from the root מָנָה (manah), meaning "to count" or "to number." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts is οἰκία (oikia - Strong's Greek 3614), meaning "house" or "dwelling." Usage: The Hebrew word "manon" refers to a place of dwelling or habitation. It is used to describe a physical location where one resides or abides. In a broader sense, it can also imply a place of rest or security. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of a dwelling place was significant, as it represented not only physical shelter but also familial and communal stability. The Israelites, being a nomadic people at various points in their history, placed great importance on the idea of a secure and permanent habitation. This is reflected in their longing for the Promised Land, a place where they could establish a lasting home.
