Berean Strong's Lexicon ranan: To sing, shout for joy, rejoice Original Word: רָנַן Word Origin: A primitive root Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2165 (euphrainō) - to rejoice, be glad - G5463 (chairō) - to rejoice, be glad Usage: The Hebrew verb "ranan" primarily conveys the act of singing or shouting, often with a connotation of joy or exultation. It is frequently used in the context of worship and praise, expressing a deep, heartfelt response to God's majesty, deliverance, or blessings. The term can also imply a loud, jubilant proclamation, reflecting a communal or individual expression of faith and gratitude. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite culture, music and singing were integral to worship and communal gatherings. Singing was a means of expressing emotions, recounting God's deeds, and fostering unity among the people. The use of "ranan" in the Hebrew Bible reflects the importance of vocal expression in both personal devotion and corporate worship settings. The Israelites often sang in response to significant events, such as military victories, religious festivals, and divine interventions.
