Strong's Lexicon taalumah: Secret, mystery Original Word: תַּעֲלוּמָה Word Origin: Derived from the root עָלַם (alam), which means "to conceal" or "to hide." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3466 (μυστήριον, mystērion) – Often translated as "mystery" in the New Testament, referring to divine secrets or truths revealed by God. Usage: The Hebrew word "taalumah" refers to something that is hidden or concealed, often implying a divine or profound mystery. It is used to describe things that are beyond human understanding or knowledge, often associated with the wisdom and knowledge of God. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Hebrew culture, the concept of mystery or hidden knowledge was often linked to the divine. The Israelites believed that God held ultimate wisdom and that certain truths were only revealed to those whom He chose. This understanding of mystery is reflected in the wisdom literature of the Old Testament, where the pursuit of knowledge and understanding is seen as a noble endeavor, yet one that acknowledges the limitations of human comprehension.
