Strong's Lexicon
shalleteth: Dominion, Authority

Original Word: שַׁלֶּטֶת
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: shalleteth
Pronunciation: shal-leh'-teth
Phonetic Spelling: (shal-leh'-teth)
Definition: Dominion, Authority
Meaning: a vixen

Word Origin: Derived from the root שָׁלַט (shalat), meaning "to have power" or "to rule."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often associated with the concept of dominion or authority is ἐξουσία (exousia), Strong's Greek #1849, which appears in the New Testament to describe both earthly and divine authority.

Usage: The term "shalleteth" refers to the concept of dominion or authority, often in the context of governance or control. It is used to describe the power or rule that one entity holds over another, whether in a political, social, or spiritual sense.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the concept of dominion was deeply intertwined with the understanding of God's sovereignty and the delegated authority given to human leaders. The Hebrew people recognized that all authority ultimately derived from God, and earthly rulers were seen as stewards of His divine order. This understanding was reflected in the governance structures of Israel, where kings, judges, and priests were expected to rule in accordance with God's laws and commandments.
