606. enash
Strong's Lexicon
enash: Man, human, mortal

Original Word: אֱנָשׁ
Part of Speech: Noun Masculine
Transliteration: enash
Pronunciation: eh-nahsh
Phonetic Spelling: (en-awsh')
Definition: Man, human, mortal
Meaning: a man

Word Origin: Derived from the root אֱנוֹשׁ (enosh), which is related to the concept of being frail or mortal.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G444 (ἄνθρωπος, anthropos) - Man, human being

- G435 (ἀνήρ, anēr) - Man, male

Usage: The term "enash" is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to human beings, emphasizing their mortality and frailty. It is often used in poetic and prophetic literature to contrast the weakness of humans with the strength and eternity of God. The word underscores the transient nature of human life and the inherent limitations of mankind.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, the concept of human frailty was a common theme. The Hebrew Bible often reflects on the brevity and vulnerability of human life, especially in contrast to the divine. This understanding is rooted in the broader cultural milieu where human life was seen as fleeting and dependent on the divine for sustenance and meaning.
