Strong's Lexicon rev: To subdue, to have dominion, to rule Original Word: רֵו Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2961 (κυριεύω, kurieúō) - to have dominion over, to rule - G2634 (κατακυριεύω, katakurieuō) - to exercise authority over, to subdue Usage: The Hebrew verb "rad" primarily conveys the idea of exercising control or authority over something. It is often used in contexts where one is given the responsibility to govern, manage, or subdue. This term is frequently associated with the concept of dominion, particularly in the context of humanity's role in creation. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the concept of dominion was closely tied to kingship and governance. Rulers were often seen as stewards of the land and people, responsible for maintaining order and justice. The biblical use of "rad" reflects this understanding, emphasizing the responsibility and authority given by God to humans, particularly in the context of creation.
