Strong's Lexicon Rohagah: Rest, tranquility, calmness Original Word: רוֹהֲגָה Word Origin: Derived from the root רוּחַ (ruach), which means "to breathe" or "to blow." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint and the New Testament is εἰρήνη (eirēnē), which also means peace or tranquility. This term is found in passages such as John 14:27, "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you" (BSB). Usage: The term "Rohagah" is used to describe a state of rest or tranquility, often in a spiritual or emotional context. It conveys a sense of peace and calmness that comes from divine assurance or presence. In the Hebrew Bible, it is associated with the peace that God provides to His people, especially in times of turmoil or distress. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, the concept of rest was deeply intertwined with the Sabbath, a day set apart for rest and worship. The idea of divine rest was not only physical but also spiritual, symbolizing trust in God's provision and sovereignty. The Hebrew understanding of peace (shalom) encompassed wholeness and completeness, which "Rohagah" reflects in its usage.
