Original Word:אַחֵר
Part of Speech:Adjective
Transliteration:acher
Pronunciation:a-khair
Phonetic Spelling:(akh-air')
Definition:Other, another, different
Meaning:hinder, next, other

Word Origin:Derived from the Hebrew root אָחַר (achar), meaning "to be behind" or "to delay."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: -ἄλλος (allos): Another, other

-ἕτερος (heteros): Different, another

Usage:The Hebrew word "acher" is used to denote something that is "other" or "another," often in the context of distinguishing between two or more items, people, or concepts. It can imply a sense of difference or distinction from what is previously mentioned or known.

Cultural and Historical Background:In the ancient Hebrew context, the concept of "otherness" was significant in distinguishing between the chosen people of Israel and other nations, as well as between the worship of Yahweh and other gods. The use of "acher" often highlights the exclusivity and uniqueness of God's covenant with Israel, as well as the call to avoid idolatry and syncretism with surrounding cultures.
