Strong's Lexicon bachur: Young man, chosen one Original Word: בָּחוּר Word Origin: Derived from the root בָּחַר (bachar), meaning "to choose" or "to select." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3495 (neaniskos): A young man, often used in the New Testament to describe a youth or young adult. - G1388 (dorean): While not a direct translation, this term can relate to the concept of being chosen or selected, as it refers to a gift or something given freely. Usage: The term "bachur" primarily refers to a young man, often highlighting the vigor, strength, and potential associated with youth. It can also imply someone who is chosen or selected, reflecting the root meaning of the word. In the context of the Hebrew Bible, "bachur" is used to describe young men in their prime, often in relation to their roles in society, military service, or spiritual responsibilities. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israelite society, young men were seen as the backbone of the community, expected to contribute to the family, engage in labor, and serve in the military. The term "bachur" captures the essence of youthfulness and the responsibilities that come with it. Young men were often trained in the ways of their fathers, learning trades, and preparing for leadership roles within the community. The concept of being "chosen" also ties into the cultural practice of selecting individuals for specific tasks or roles, whether in religious, social, or military contexts.
