Strong's Lexicon alqum: "I will arise" Original Word: אַלְקוּם Word Origin: From the root קום (qum), meaning "to arise" or "to stand up." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is ἀνίστημι (anistēmi), Strong's Greek #450, which also means "to arise" or "to stand up." Usage: The Hebrew verb "אלקום" (alqum) is a first-person singular form meaning "I will arise" or "I will stand up." It is often used in contexts where an individual is expressing a determination to take action or to respond to a situation. This verb conveys a sense of readiness and resolve, often in the face of adversity or challenge. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the act of rising or standing up was often symbolic of taking a position of authority, readiness, or action. It could signify a transition from a state of rest or inactivity to one of engagement and purpose. This concept is deeply embedded in the Hebrew understanding of leadership and response to divine calling or personal conviction.
