Strong's Lexicon anoki: I, I am Original Word: אָנֹכִי Word Origin: A primary pronoun of the first person singular Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1473 (ἐγώ, egō): The Greek equivalent for "I," used in the New Testament to denote the first person singular pronoun. Usage: The Hebrew word "anoki" is a pronoun used to denote the first person singular, equivalent to the English "I" or "I am." It is often used in the Hebrew Bible to emphasize the speaker's identity or role, particularly in divine speech. "Anoki" is frequently employed in contexts where God is declaring His identity, presence, or actions, underscoring His personal involvement and authority. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, pronouns like "anoki" were significant in communication, especially in covenantal and legal contexts. The use of "anoki" by God in the Hebrew Scriptures often highlights His personal relationship with His people, Israel. It is a term that conveys intimacy, authority, and the personal nature of God's interactions with humanity. The use of "anoki" in divine self-revelation, such as in the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:2), underscores the personal nature of God's covenant with Israel.
