Strong's Lexicon pol: To be wonderful, to be extraordinary, to be difficult Original Word: פוֹל Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2297 (θαυμάζω, thaumazo) - to wonder, marvel - G5059 (τεράστιον, terastion) - wonder, miracle Usage: The Hebrew verb "pala" primarily conveys the idea of something being wonderful or extraordinary, often in the context of God's miraculous deeds or actions that are beyond human understanding. It can also imply something that is difficult or hard to comprehend. This term is frequently used to describe the wondrous works of God, highlighting His power and majesty. Cultural and Historical Background: In the ancient Near Eastern context, the concept of "wonder" or "miracle" was often associated with divine intervention. The Israelites, in particular, viewed the miraculous acts of God as a testament to His covenantal faithfulness and power. The use of "pala" in the Hebrew Bible underscores the belief in a God who is actively involved in the world, performing deeds that transcend natural laws and human capabilities.
