Berean Strong's Lexicon anaq: Anak Original Word: ענק Word Origin: Derived from the root verb עָנַק (anāq), meaning "to be tall" or "to be long-necked." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for "Anaq" as it is a proper noun specific to the Hebrew context. However, the concept of giants is sometimes related to the Greek term "γίγας" (Gigas), which refers to giants. Usage: The term "Anaq" refers to a person or people known for their great height. In the Bible, it is specifically used to describe the Anakim, a race of giants mentioned in the Old Testament. The Anakim were considered formidable and fearsome due to their size and strength. Cultural and Historical Background: The Anakim were a group of people living in the land of Canaan during the time of the Israelite conquest. They are often associated with other giant clans such as the Rephaim and the Nephilim. The presence of the Anakim in Canaan was a significant concern for the Israelites, as their size and strength posed a considerable challenge to the conquest of the Promised Land. The Anakim were believed to be descendants of Anak, a notable figure among them. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Origina prim. root Definition to cry, groan NASB Translation groan (4).
