Strong's Lexicon qal: Light, swift, agile Original Word: קָל Word Origin: From the root קָלַל (qalal), which means "to be light" or "to be swift." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G1645 (elaphros): Light, easy - G5036 (tachus): Swift, quick Usage: The Hebrew word "qal" primarily conveys the idea of lightness or swiftness. It is often used to describe something that is not heavy or burdensome, or to depict speed and agility. In a metaphorical sense, it can also refer to something that is easy or simple. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of lightness was often associated with ease and freedom from burden. Swiftness was a valued trait, especially in contexts such as warfare or hunting, where speed and agility could determine success. The term "qal" would have been understood in these contexts, reflecting both physical and metaphorical attributes.
