mishi: Support, refuge, or salvation.

Original Word: מִשְׁעִי
Part of Speech: Noun Feminine
Transliteration: mish`iy
Pronunciation: MEE-shee
Phonetic Spelling: (mish-ee')
Definition: Support, refuge, or salvation.
Meaning: inspection

Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root שָׁעָה (sha'ah), which means to look or gaze.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts is σωτηρία (soteria), which means salvation or deliverance.

Usage: The term "mishi" is used to denote a sense of support or refuge, often in the context of divine salvation or deliverance. It conveys the idea of God being a place of safety and protection for His people.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of refuge was deeply significant. Cities of refuge were established as places where individuals could seek asylum. Similarly, God was often depicted as a refuge for His people, a place of safety amidst the trials and tribulations of life. This reflects the broader Ancient Near Eastern understanding of deities as protectors and providers of security.
